The Dallas Cowboys certainly won't be playing a football game on Friday night, but that doesn't mean that AT&T Stadium won't be full.

AT&T Stadium is hosting what could be one of the most interesting boxing matches of the year as influencer Jake Paul is set to take on boxing legend Mike Tyson in an eight-round fight. 

It's sure to be a fun night, and social media erupted as the Cowboys made a slight tweak that wasn't recently made for a football game. Dallas took on the rival Philadelphia Eagles last weekend and lost 34-6.

After the game, there was a lot of talk about how bright the sun shined in the stadium, and star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb even talked about how he couldn't see the ball on a pass. AT&T Stadium's windows and the amount of sunlight in the stadium shockingly became a national story throughout the week, with everyone from Jerry Jones to television pundits weighing in.

It seems like Paul and Tyson won't have to deal with the same issue that Lamb did, as the curtains were closed, according to the Dallas Morning News' Calvin Watkins.

Watkins shared a photo of closed curtains in the stadium with the caption: "We got curtains for a sporting event at AT&T Stadium."

Social media was set ablaze with jokes and chatter about the closed curtains after last week's challenges. It's unclear how this will impact upcoming Cowboys' clashes. Dallas will return to the field on Monday night against the Houston Texans with an 8:15 p.m. ET kick-off. Hopefully, there are no more sun-related incidents.
