My group got there around 6:30 and were able to get in - most of us got to the 2nd level where there was still plenty of room to move around and easily get to concessions. It was about 10 people deep to actually get up close enough to see the field, but the screens were in fine view.

To be fair (however controversial being fair to Jerry Jones is), this was part of an email sent out to those that purchased a party pass:

*"Some party pass areas of the stadium may fill to capacity. When that occurs, you will no longer be provided access to those specific areas. In such an instance, you may be asked to move to an area with available space (including the plazas). With that in mind, we have designed outdoor bars and very large video screens with live broadcasts of the game on the plazas just outside the party decks."*

So, it's not like there was no warning that those people might not actually get in to the stadium.
