Rates skyrocket all over the Metroplex when Cowboys games are scheduled, this will be similar.

At least both areas have decent to good LLC penetration for getting in and out…plus nearby airports to avoid gouging (OKC SHV AUS SAT LCH)…and the possibility of casino rooms in Oklahoma and Louisiana if needed.
True. But even $299 might be a treat compared to what the hotels will be like in other metros.
