The 2014 NCAA Tournament Final Four has gotten underway in Arlington, Texas inside AT&T Stadium, the creation of Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.

An event the magnitude of the Final Four being held in the venue was what Jones had envisioned when he built the stadium a few years ago.

However, I don’t think he anticipated the reaction he would get when shown on his own monstrous jumbotron prior to the event kicking off.

When Jones was shown to the folks in attendance, he was greeted with a host of loud and resounding boos. Yes, he was booed in his own stadium.

Now you could blame it all on the Cowboys’ lackluster efforts the past few NFL seasons, but most of the crowd in attendance may not even have any allegiance to the Cowboys. Rather, it’s completely possible that Jones is just that much universally hated that crowds of people just boo at the sight of him.

Still, though, they can boo all they want. Jerry’s pockets only get bigger after this event.
