When Jerry Jones bought the Dallas Cowboys, he was criticized for it. Jones purchased the Cowboys in 1989 for a then-record $140 million. It was a large amount of money, and basically, it was a big gamble by Jones. Eugenia knew the risk that Jerry took. Despite that, she continued to back him, as she had full trust in him.
The decision to buy the Cowboys turned out to be the best decision of the Jones family. Dallas Cowboys are now the most popular sports franchise in the world. Consequently, the popularity and recognition of Jerry Jones have increased massively.
