Everything is bigger in Jerryworld, including the practice facility.
The Dallas Cowboys have a new $1.5 billion project and the main feature is the new 12,000-seat indoor practice facility, which comes with a gigantic scoreboard and will play host to high school games when the team isn’t practicing.
ESPN’s Todd Archer provided a video of the stunning facility:

Maybe this isn’t the biggest surprise in the world coming from the team with the planet-sized scoreboard above its actual field. But still, it’s crazy to look at when one remembers some teams don’t even have an indoor practice facility and have to run practices outside in the elements.
Alas, the center doubles as a place for high school kids to play games, which is a real treat for them and their parents. If one team was going to pull something like this off, it was Jerry Jones’ Cowboys.
