Boots are Bigger in Texas

The Dallas Stars are kicking off the 2025-2026 season with a citywide search across DFW!

Eight six-foot-tall custom boots, each designed by a local Dallas artist, have been placed around the metroplex. Fans who visit these installations and upload a photo to the sweepstakes will be entered for a chance to win two tickets to the Dallas Stars Home Opener on October 14 at American Airlines Center and an exclusive VIP meet-and-greet with players following the game. Sweepstakes will conclude on Sunday, Oct. 12 at 11:59 p.m.

At the base of each boot is a QR code linking to the sweepstakes contest. Each boot you spot and snap a photo with earns you another entry – the more you explore, the better your chances of scoring the ultimate #TexasHockey experience.
