Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is among the biggest personalities in the sport. And fans who attend AT&T Stadium in Dallas will be reminded of him forever now thanks to a huge renovation to the stadium.
Fans who attend Dallas Cowboys games will now be able to talk to Jones and even ask him questions. Well… not exactly the Jerry Jones that some fans would have hoped for.
The AT&T Stadium social media team posted a video of a new interactive experience at the stadium where fans can talk to an AI hologram of Jones.

Jones will now live on forever at AT&T Stadium, and it is truly very freaky how life-like the hologram is. Naturally, there were plenty of hilarious reactions on social media to the news.
When Jerry Jones passes away, he’s gonna hand down ownership of the Cowboys franchise and role of general manager to AI hologram Jerry Jones https://t.co/H6tXIxYsTH

Can we ask his AI about his split with Jimmy Johnson or the allegations in his paternity lawsuit? https://t.co/PKt71ffzmB

Cowboys fans have also been asked to pray to this, and accept Jerry as their lord and savior before they will be allowed into the stadium https://t.co/A4Yap3WMcS

It’s no surprise whatsoever that Jones would spare no expense to make AT&T Stadium exactly how he wants it. But it is at least a little weird that there will now be a fake Jerry Jones in the stadium at all times…
Maybe this new hologram will give the Cowboys some luck as they head into the 2023 season. They will get their season started on Sunday night when they take on an NFC East rival, the New York Giants.
