We are flying into Dallas to go to Patriot and American. We are debating renting a car or using Uber....Do you pay for parking at Wil Rogers and Stockyards? I know it is expensive at AT&T. Are NRS and Teskeys "must do's"?

We are renting a car to drive down and run around to sight see during the day.
Right now we plan on utilizing Uber to get to the semi finals Friday night and probably to go back over to the stockyards for a concert Saturday night - mostly because we want to be free to consume adult beverages. I haven’t decided if we’ll drive down to AT&T on Sunday or Uber. We may Uber if parking is expensive.

Stockyards has a free parking area after a certain time. Parking is fairly cheap there. It is expensive at AT&T. NRS and Teskey's are MUST DOs! Teskey's cafe is delicious! Uber is a bit hard to come by in Weatherford but Fort Worth shouldn't be hard to find an Uber. ETA: you will save money by Renting a car rather than using Uber if you are going from Decatur to Fort Worth to Dallas/Arlington To Weatherford.

Uber all the way!! Last time we were in vegas, we had a driver within minutes. And saved a bunch of money. Even if you get a rental car you may have to pay for parking. Love uber.

I would say Uber. We went to the patriot last year to rope and you can't really park anywhere close to the arenas or vendors, so I wouldn't see the advantage of having your own vehicle. Same with the semi-finals. There isn't a charge for parking that I'm aware of (we've always had our truck/trailer) but there is no where to park, and you would want to walk up and down the streets anyway to see all the shops.
