Description:

The Wiz name originally came to life following a month-long campaign in the Kansas City Star, asking fans to submit names for the new MLS franchise. Over 3,200 entries were received. (ed. not sure if that means 3200 votes or 3200 different names!) A change to the Wizards was made for the 1997 season. The lower-division Delaware Wizards previously owned exclusive rights to the Wizards name, but allowed Kansas City to use the name after this season.

Community America Ballpark:

The Wizards are using Community America Ballpark while Arrowhead Stadium undergoes renovations. It is normally a minor-league baseball stadium. Previous Stadiums: Arrowhead Stadium (1996-2007).
