Where is the Cotton Bowl?

The Cotton Bowl is played at AT&T Stadium in Arlington.

In 2010, the Cotton Bowl Classic, which is at the Texas State Fair Grounds, moved to AT&T Stadium as part of a bid by bowl officials to make it part of the BCS in 2011. The new AT&T Stadium had some perks - one being the retractable roof that would help protect the players and fans from the cold weather in January.
