Colorado Rapids history
The Rapids were founded in 1995 under the Anschutz Corporation and played the first MLS season in 1996 as one of the league's founding clubs. Today the owner is Kroenke Sports & Entertainment, which also owns the Denver Nuggets, the Colorado Avalanche and the Colorado Mammoth lacrosse team.
The best day came in 2010, when Colorado won the MLS Cup in its second trip to the final. The first try, back in 1997, had ended in defeat, so the 2010 title made up for a long wait. Another final came in the 1999 U.S. Open Cup, where the Rochester Raging Rhinos beat them. No club from outside MLS has won that tournament since. The team plays in the Western Conference.
