For the majority of the franchise's history the Cowboys played their home games at Texas Stadium. Just outside the city of Dallas, the stadium was located in [[Irving, Texas|Irving]]. The stadium opened on October 24, 1971, at a cost of $35&nbsp;million and with a [[seating capacity]] of 65,675. The stadium was famous for its hole-in-the-roof dome. The roof's worn paint had become so unsightly in the early 2000s that it was repainted in the summer of 2006 by the City of Irving. It was the first time the famed roof was repainted since Texas Stadium opened. The roof was structurally independent from the stadium it covered. The Cowboys lost their final game at Texas Stadium to the [[Baltimore Ravens]], 33–24, on December 20, 2008. After Cowboys Stadium was opened in 2009, the Cowboys turned over the facility to the City of Irving.

In [[2009 NFL season|2009]], it was replaced as home of the Cowboys by [[AT&T Stadium|Cowboys Stadium]], which officially opened on May 27, 2009, in [[Arlington, Texas|Arlington]].<ref>{{cite news | url=https://www.usatoday.com/sports/football/nfl/cowboys/2009-09-17-cowboys-stadium-cover_N.htm | work=USA Today | title='This transcends football': 'Boys boast as new stadium shines | first=Jarrett | last=Bell | date=September 18, 2009 | access-date=April 30, 2010 | archive-date=September 22, 2009 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090922232210/http://www.usatoday.com/sports/football/nfl/cowboys/2009-09-17-cowboys-stadium-cover_N.htm | url-status=live }}</ref> Texas Stadium was demolished by implosion on April 11, 2010.<ref name="b784">{{cite web | last=Brock | first=Todd | title=Blowing up God's Peephole: The 10-yr anniversary of Texas Stadium's demise | website=Cowboys Wire|publisher=USA Today | date=2020-04-11 | url=https://cowboyswire.usatoday.com/2020/04/11/texas-stadium-implosion-10th-anniversary/ | access-date=2024-08-24}}</ref>
