From their first contest against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday Night Football at what was then Reliant Stadium nineteen (19) years ago, your Houston Texans have proudly proclaimed that they have sold out every home game. It didn’t matter whether the team was good; year after year, Houston fans showed up to watch the Texans play. It appears that will change this season.
