When Audi Field was designed they wanted everyone to appreciate the teams historic wins so all their trophies are on display at the team store. The MLS Cups are located in a different location (center stage inside the team store), while these are in a much more quiet location but not less meaningful. The U.S. Open Cup has been held almost every year since 1913 and is one of the oldest competitions in the United States. In 1998 D.C. United won the CONCACAF and is still only one of two MLS teams to win the tournament. While the 1998 Copa Interamericana is the sole win by a team out of the United States of America during its 30 year history.

Visit Instructions:
Please take a photo of the award and describe your experience. If it is particularly large trophy or cup include a photo with yourself for scale.
Special note regarding schools: Public secondary schools are public places, and they often include public displays of trophies, medals and cups; however, security concerns might make it difficult to visit these locations at certain times. The best time to visit is probably during an athletic competition. The trophy case is very often adjacent to the gymnasium, and it would be very easy to photograph the trophies at such times. Alternately, you may visit during the school day. Respect school policy and sign in at the office as appropriate. You might explain that you heard that there was a national championship trophy on display somewhere in the school and you would like to photograph it. The secretary will likely direct you down the correct hallway, pleased as punch that people still care about that old championship.
