Been to both. Cotton is by far the better experience. The stadium is great (until you get to your seats in the upper deck, then you need a boarding pass as well as a ticket) while the Orlando Stadium sucks. TThe atmosphere outside Jery World is fun, while the atmosphere outside the Orlando stadium is mugger-centric. Dallas/Arlington has lots to do. Fighting the crowds at Disney World or Universal Studios on New Year's Eve is worse than riding the NYC subways. And if the Cotton Bowl isn't more prestigious now, it's fast getting there

I think anyone who has gone to the Capital One will have a warmer feeling about attending the Cotton Bowl instead

so fricking true! Before the game 50% of the threads started on the SEC Rant were created by Arky fans. Now I looked through the first five pages and there are none except this one cause I just bumped it.

Cotton is:
1) closer.
2) Better for recruiting.
3) in Dallas, where I can find much cooler shite to do on a Friday night than on NYE at Disney World.
4) in a nicer stadium.
5) the only game on during primetime.
Also, I was hoping, if we got to this point, we'd get the chance to play Texas. Cotton Bowl has a lot of history with both teams. I think the players would care a lot more about playing OU or the likes over a team from the B1G.

Cotton or Cap One?
As an LSU fan who has been to both recently...
Cotton: way better stadium in a much nicer area, better parking, hotels
Capitol One: stadium sucks, welcome to da hood, not convenient to hotels
For families, Dallas has Six Flags, Orlando has Disney and Universal Studios (Harry Potter)
For adults, Dallas night life >>>> Orlando nightlife
I'd take Dallas > Orlando every day for a bowl game.
