Kyle Rittenhouse, the 18-year-old who was acquitted of murder charges last month after he fatally shot two men in Kenosha, Wisconsin, in August 2020, recently visited the Dallas Cowboys headquarters.

Rittenhouse posted images from The Star on Instagram on Monday. One image shows the Cowboys’ outside practice field and another shows Rittenhouse viewing the Cowboys’ Super Bowl trophies in the lobby of The Star.

According to a source, Rittenhouse visited The Star on his own accord. An additional source said a member of the Cowboys Club, which is a private social club located at The Star, invited Rittenhouse and escorted him around the lobby.

The public is allowed to enter The Star’s lobby without an invite but typically need a guest pass to reach the areas with the Super Bowl trophies or the view of the practice field.

Rittenhouse also posted images with Glenn Beck’s Blaze TV hosts Elijah Schaffer and Sara Gonzales.
