The Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders’ popularity has reached unexpected levels, even landing a Netflix show. Tryouts to join the group have become a major event for candidates, given the high standards it demands every year.

On Sunday, they surprised fans with a new special uniform. Like many people around the NFL, the group celebrated Halloween over the weekend.

Fans saw something uncommon in Sunday’s loss to the Arizona Cardinals. The white-and-blue uniforms were replaced by a different set.

The team’s Instagram account shared a clip showcasing the new uniforms as the group danced.

“STAMPEDE 🌟,” the team announced.

The uniforms look very different from the regular ones, and fans’ reactions revealed that not many liked them.

“love thats its new but i feel like its messy!! 🥲” one wrote.

“Love the costumes but they get washed out from afar. It kills their lines,” someone added.

“Beautiful work but the costumes could have been cuter Cutouts were not at the best spots,” another wrote.

“It’s hard to see these costumes against the field, but that’s a blessing, really,” one commented.

“Love DCC, but kinda tacky uniform,” another said.

“Love the performance, not a fan of the cut outs in the costumes,” another wrote.

The Cowboys collapsed in the fourth quarter, losing 33-30 to the Cardinals in overtime. Additionally, what seemed to be their biggest hit of the afternoon turned into a negative for many fans.
