The Dallas Cowboys beat the Washington Redskins 38-14 on Thursday Night Football at AT&T Stadium, and the game’s attendance could’ve certainly been better.

Many reporters and fans shared photos that show a lot of empty seats in Jerry World.

One explanation for this could be rough traffic on I-30 on the way to the game.

Maybe it’s also related to some fans “boycotting” due to anthem protests (*rolls eyes*), maybe it’s fans not wanting to come out to watch two 5-6 football teams, maybe it’s that it’s a weeknight, and maybe it’s a few of these things. Whatever the case, that’s an alarming amount of empty seats.
