Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has seen plenty of wild moments in his 84 years of life, but none are like the story he shared Tuesday about a cheeky encounter with a Packers fan.
Jones encountered a “hefty” female Packers fan “around 25 years ago,” as he tells it, who ran up to his car and pressed her buttocks against his car window with his grandchildren in the vehicle.
“All of my grandchildren were very small, 4 or 5 years old, and I had a car full of them,” Jones said during an appearance on 105.3 FM The Fan on Tuesday. “We’d been up to watch Green Bay, and Green Bay… it was so cold. And as we left the stadium, we won, as we left the stadium, we were in a long, big car, and I saw this lady headed toward the car. And she comes up beside the car running. She’s so upset as a Green Bay fan, and she was pretty hefty. And she turns around and pulls it all down and just plants it right up against the window. And everybody inside was in awe and couldn’t believe it. And then her skin — her skin stuck to the window, it was so cold.”
Jones admitted during his weekly appearance on the Dallas radio station that her gesture remains vivid in his memory.
“When she pulled away, it was just a big print. …We can still see it today,” Jones said.
Jerry’s son Stephen, the Cowboys’ executive vice president, shared his recollection in a later appearance on the radio station.
“Oh yes, I remember it. I was in there,” Stephen said. “Unfortunately, the one closest to the scene of the crime was my mother.”
Someone’s memory may be a little cloudy, regarding this specific tale, however. The Cowboys have won just three of 11 games in Green Bay during Jones’ ownership tenure, with the first coming in early October of 1991 — not exactly freezing season in Wisconsin. The other two came in Sept. 2008 and Oct. 2016, much more recently than the 25-year timeframe.
This hilariously shocking story adds to the rivalry between the Packers and Cowboys. The Packers have won five of their last seven meetings.
After a rough Week 5 that saw the Cowboys get upset by a winless Buccaneers team, 24-16, at AT&T Stadium, the owner still appears to be in good spirits.
Jones is going to have a better entourage this time around as the Cowboys (2-3) head to Lambeau Field to face the Packers (3-2) on “Sunday Night Football.”
