During a pregame military flyover involving four U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopters, fireworks launched from the stadium exploded dangerously close to the final aircraft as it passed overhead. Fans reacted with alarm, and videos of the incident quickly circulated on social media. The helicopter continued its flight without any reported injuries or damage, although it remains unclear whether the fireworks made direct contact with the aircraft.
