The Athletic's Jon Machota posted a video on X highlighting how practice was underway, yet the stands were basically empty.

"Stands are pretty empty for the Dallas Cowboys’ first training camp practice," Machota wrote, alongside the video of the empty stands.

In response, some NFL fans joked that this poor attendance was due to the iconic franchise not winning any major trophies for almost 30 years.

"Year 29 of NO title will do this. lol," one fan wrote.
"It's the same ol song and dance, not suprised the stands are empty," one fan wrote.
"Good, Jerry doesn’t deserve to see the stands filled," one fan wrote about owner Jerry Jones.

Meanwhile, some NFL fans suggested there were other reasons why the stands were empty.

"People aren’t trying to travel all the way to Oxnard to watch the team practice," one fan wrote.
"Maybe if they practiced in Texas, where the team actually plays at?." one fan wrote.

Dallas Cowboys had the highest average attendance last season

Although the opening day of training camp may have had much less fan presence than expected, the situation is not any cause for concern for the Cowboys organization. "America's Team" is the most valuable NFL franchise in the league and had the highest average attendance last year (92,972 average fans per home game).

On the football field, there is some legitimate excitement building after a disappointing and injury-filled 2024 season. Quarterback Dak Prescott looks healthy, the offense has a new star wide receiver in George Pickens, and the team has a new coach in Brian Schottenheimer and a new defensive coordinator in Matt Eberflus.
