If you are going to set off fireworks, call an explosive scorer.

FC Dallas hosted Dallas Stars forward Jason Robertson this weekend, having him do the honors of setting off fireworks at Toyota Stadium.

Robertson, who posted his third 40-plus goal season for the Stars in 2025-26, walked on the field and pushed the team's oversized red button setting off fireworks behind him.

FC Dallas picked up a 4-3 win against Sporting KC in the game.

Robertson also shared a photo with popular content creator IShowSpeed to his social media.

Seems like the veteran forward is making the most of his time this offseason. The Stars play their season opener at home against the St. Louis Blues on Oct. 2 (9 p.m. ET; HBO MAX, truTV, TNT).
