FRISCO, Texas (AP) — The Dallas Cowboys community is mourning the loss of one of its most recognizable and devoted supporters.
Carolyn Price, a fixture at Cowboys games and training camp practices for decades, died Monday night at the age of 83, her family confirmed.
For years, Price could be found in the stands on game day and along the practice fields during training camp, proudly supporting the franchise through playoff runs, rebuilding seasons and everything in between. Players, staff and fellow fans came to know her not just for her loyalty, but for her presence — steady, passionate and unwavering.
At The Star in Frisco and on the road, Price represented a generation of Cowboys faithful who turned fandom into tradition. Rain or shine, preseason or postseason, she showed up. Her dedication reflected the bond between the franchise and its supporters, one that stretches across decades in North Texas.
Family members said the Cowboys were more than a team to Price — they were part of her life’s rhythm each fall. Sundays were reserved for kickoff. Summers meant time at camp. She followed the team closely and celebrated its milestones as if they were her own.
In a fan base known for its size and energy, Price stood out for her consistency. She watched eras change — from championship glory years to the modern-day roster — yet her commitment never wavered.
As news of her passing spread, tributes poured in from fellow fans who remembered her smile, her spirit and her unmistakable presence in the crowd.
The Cowboys have long called themselves “America’s Team,” but for Carolyn Price, the connection was deeply personal. For decades, she didn’t just watch the Cowboys — she lived them.
