DALLAS — Major League Soccer officially launched its #MLSin96 campaign Monday morning, which meant FC Dallas turned back the clock to it first year in the league. Changing all of its social media profiles to align with the first team name in franchise history — the Dallas Burn — fans were asked to share their first MLS memories/memorabilia whether it be from the year the league launched in 1996 or during its 25th season in 2020.
We gathered up some of the many responses received on social media. #BurnBabyBurn.
Here, Cody shared a retro Dallas Burn ball.
Edgar Cortez remembers going to the Cotton Bowl back in the day to watch his Dad's favorite player, Hugo Sanchez.
Stuart O'Kane is seen here standing on the field at Toyota Stadium, repping the Stars of Texas away kit.
This might be one of my favorites! James Wedding submitted a retro MLS ball signed by 1996 Goalkeeper of the Year, Mark Dodd!

What. A. Kit. A Leonel Alvarez kit that is!
