The City of Arlington provided over $325 million (including interest) in bonds as funding, and Jones covered any cost overruns. To aid Cowboys owner and general manager, Jerry Jones, in paying the construction costs of the new stadium, Arlington voters approved the increase of the city's sales tax by 0.5%, the hotel occupancy tax by 2%, and car rental tax by 5%. Originally estimated at $650 million, the stadium's actual construction cost rose to $1.15 billion, making it one of the most expensive sports venues ever built. It also has the world's 34th largest high definition video screen. The record attendance for an NFL regular season game was set in 2009 with a crowd of 105,121.

Additional attendance is made possible by the Party Pass (open areas) sections behind the seats in each end zone which are positioned on a series of six elevated platforms connected by stairways. The stadium can seat around 80,000 people, but can be reconfigured to hold around 100,000 seats making it the largest stadium in the NFL by seating capacity. The stadium is widely referred to as Jerry World after Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, who originally envisioned it as a large entertainment venue. It replaced the partially covered Texas Stadium, which served as the Cowboys' home from 1971 through the 2008 season.
