Suspicious Package Outside Cowboys Stadium, Law Enformcent Investigating

ARLINGTON, Texas — Arlington authorities have issued an all-clear after a suspicious package reported near the site of the Super Bowl was deemed safe.

Arlington fire Lt. Pete Arevalo (uh-REV'-a-low) said a package that a witness reported was thrown into a drainage ditch Friday morning near Cowboys Stadium turned out to be trash.

Arevalo said the area around the stadium was closed minutes after the 911 call around 8 a.m. He said bomb squad personnel examined the package on a street along the north side of the $1.3 billion stadium.

The Pittsburgh Steelers play the Green Bay Packers in the Super Bowl on Feb. 6.

It is just another JJ's gimmick to create more publicity for the SB at his stadium.

It must be the Cowboy's talent. Someone went 'Spacejam' on them.
