Like a lot of things
in Texas, the
“Big Hoss” video
screen is suppos-
edly the largest in
the world.
ARENAS, FIELDS, AND FANS
highlight videos, commercials, announce-
ments, and more are shown on the enormous
screen. And it’s all in high-definition video.
But by 2013, the Cowboys screen was in
second place. Houston’s Reliant Stadium or-
dered a screen 52 feet tall and 277 feet wide.
The stadium claimed the scoreboard had the
largest screen in sports.
That distinction lasted for only a year. The
Texas Motor Speedway, home to NASCAR rac-
ing, built “Big Hoss TV” and claimed “world’s
largest” status. The screen there, built over
racing
grandstands
, measures 218 x 94.6
feet. It’s not as tall as Reliant’s but it is 9,000
