Take a Behind-the-Scenes Walking Tour With TheBlaze at Cowboys Stadium (With Sneak Peek of Liberty Bell!)

Exclusive Live & On Demand Coverage of Restoring Love Available Now on GBTV Plus – Click for Details.

As the culmination of Restoring Love draws closer, the field at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas, is taking shape. And as that happens, more details about what’s set for Saturday are coming out. Intrepid Blaze writer Mike Opelka, then, decided to sneak behind the scenes and see what he could capture. And what he found on the field will intrigue you.

There are seemingly endless lines of cable:

 

As Glenn Beck revealed on radio today (stay tuned for TheBlaze’s upcoming story), he “FedExed” one of the only replicas of the Liberty Bell to the stadium. Opelka caught a peek:

 

A giant lighting gondola:

 

And of course a fog machine:

 

Finally, just wait until you see the care they take to set up the chairs. Let’s just say it involves a tape measure and meticulously spaced seating:

    I’m glad I have an HDMI plug on my laptop. I can watch it live on my 55″ widescreen. Almost like being there. Really looking forward to it!

      Amen to that! Hopefully they are working on an app for that by now. I am surprised that one doesn’t already exist though.

    Such peace and splendor , how awesome and all created by Glenn Beck – God sure had a plan for him and he obeyed !! The last two days and again tomorrow, gives us a sense of security and harmony away from all the evil and hate that is in the world . Now it is up to us to follow through if we are to keep the freedom that we cherish – with God’s help, we will SAVE our Nation from tyranny !!!!!!!

      Patriots soon be hanging in the strip clubs, wouldn’t you guess???

      Wonder what pubs are doing when they’re not ranting about the sinful gays and women who (UNDER 40 YEARS OF SUPREME COURT AFFIRMATION AND REAFFIRMATION) are free to choose whether or not they should carry a pregnancy to term? This is it, folks.
      Remember GOP chose Tampa, lap dance capital of the US, for their convention.
      Hypocritical pubs talk the talk and walk the walk right into the strip joints. Good for them. America is a free country except for when pubs want to tell you how to live.
      WHAT HYPOCRITES THEY BE.

      Angelina Spencer, the executive director of the Association of Club Executives, which serves as a trade association for strip clubs, said an informal survey of convention business in New York and Denver had determined that Republicans dropped more money at clubs, by far.

      “Hands down, it was Republicans,” she said. “The average was $150 for Republicans and $50 for Democrats.”

      As further evidence of the clubs’ nonpartisan appeal, Don Kleinhans, the owner of the 2001 Odyssey, said when the Promise Keepers, a male evangelical group, came to town years ago, business was rollicking.

      “We had phenomenal numbers all weekend, and they walked in wearing badges and name tags and weren’t shy at all,” he said.

      James Davis, a spokesman for the Republican National Convention, declined to discuss Tampa’s prominent strip clubs.

    “The Republic” Liberty is Liberty!
    Those that don’t respect and defend it shall lose it.

    Billions of people around this world would love to just have a tad of a taste of America’s freedom.
    America, the greatest and longest lasting “Republic” the world has ever known!
    God bless this great “Republic” for her forefounders visions.

    OMGosh! They rang that bell twice on Glenn’s radio program this morning. The sound was haunting… the voice of history saying loudly: “Wake Up! Let Freedom reign!” It gave me goose bumps & tears of joy & hope! The sound of the bell…… joyous noise!

    I can’t wait until tomorrow night when we get to see all that there is to see, and hear all that there is to hear, and experience all that there is to experience. My children are not so excited, but I really hope and pray that they will be inspired. May God’s presence be there and inspire us all to live better lives and seek after him. Thank You Glenn for putting this together. We were there in DC for Restoring Honor and met some of the nicest people I ever known. Not a gum wrapper could be found on the ground afterward.

      My kids were not very excited about today’s Day of Service and absolutely loved it so I am much more optimistic about their response to tomorrows event. I’m sure your kids will love it.

    The Liberty Bell!? When Glenn and the gang were talking about it without saying what it was, Pat said it could fall and kill someone, my first thought was that it was the Liberty Bell. Then I said to myself, there is no possible way the Liberty Bell would ever be allowed out of the state to attend such an event. Wow, that is absolutely amazing. Next thing you know it Washington’s wooden teeth will make an appearance. *snicker*

      When Glenn was talking about the “Log” behind him today, my mind was saying, “Is that the log George Washington knelt by to pray at Valley Forge?” I’m hoping he tells and it makes the Blaze, GBTV doesn’t fit my budget even at such a low price.

    Two guys to measure and adjust one chair? Must be a union job! :-)

    4 feet of balsa wood, and an inch of tape, and one could easily do the job of two.

    Just the Liberty Bell, all of this talk of a secret surprise, I thought Beck had found Obama’s integrity and was going to put that on display, Indeed a very rare item indeed.

    The story is that there is a fake Liberty Bell? Wow.

    I guess the intriguing part of the story is why Mike Opelka, who is employed by The Blaze, and whose only job is to glorify Glenn, needed to sneak around to get this gripping and important piece of news:

    ‘Intrepid Blaze writer Mike Opelka, then, decided to sneak behind the scenes and see what he could capture. And what he found on the field will intrigue you.’

    Hahahahaha!
