Called a Comanche Moon by early settlers of West Texas, it struck fear in the hearts of them all.
The sight of a moon like this meant that the Comanches were coming out of the Guadalupe Mountains to kill and maim every white eye they could find.
Said to be the finest horsemen since the followers of Ghengis Khan, the Comanches had no fear of fighting at night and used it to their advantage.

My birthplace, Ft. Stockton, Texas, once had a beautiful running spring that was a watering hole for the Comanches during their raiding parties.
I swam in that spring as a boy, but it's long since dried up.

Texas Stadium is the home of the five-time world champion Dallas Cowboys. The stadium has a seating capacity of 65,812 seats, features 381 luxury boxes and a 10-acre roof with a 2.5-acre hole. The two Diamond Vision screens are three stories tall.

Texas Stadium was completed in 1971 at a cost of $35 million and replaced the Cotton Bowl at Fair Park as the home of the Dallas Cowboys.

And why did they leave a hole in the roof?

So God could watch his team play.
