DALLAS — On Feb. 9, 1993, the biggest phenomenon in the history of Dallas hit downtown with 15 tons of ticker tape and confetti as an estimated 400,000 people showed up at a party budgeted for less than half that turnout. Before the parade celebrating the Cowboys’ 52-10 Super Bowl win over Buffalo nine days earlier was over, 14 revelers had gone to jail, another two dozen to the hospital and a convertible carrying a Cowboy caught fire.
For those too young or too old to remember, this is what winning used to look like around here.
We were young.
