    Okay,
    I don't live in Kansas City at this point. But I do collect scarves. And I want to make sure I get all Wizards or related scarves that get made.

    Here's an image of the scarves I currently have. If you know of other scarves, please post images and let me know if you know how I can get my hands on one.

    Thanks.

    Andy, I don't see the blue and white Cauldron scarf that the pink one was based off of.

    He should have both, I believe he ordered one of each and I am pretty sure Kevin said he shipped one of each to him.....

    Nope. I don't have that one. I have found another Wizards scarf though.

    White on one side (with KANSAS CITY) and dark blue (with WIZARDS and graphics of the MLS and USOC trophies) on the other.

    That was one the team did in the 2007 season instead of selling the ones from Adidas that year. No clue how you'd get that one now, maybe check with Sam.

    I assume you mean this one:

    And I just found #11, which I might not post because it may just piss some of you off. I don't think it was ever made available for sale. It was in the MLS trade show display for a few years and I kept hounding the MLS marketing guy responsible for it. Once OnGoal changed to the secondary Wizards logo, I got the scarf! It's similar to the original league release one, except the rainbow is present. And the reverse isn't blank but has a white background with the same design.

    I had a similar situation with the third scarf from the bottom of your collection - I got the production sample that actually said "2000 Doubles Winner" at a promotional products trade show - but I gave that scarf to Igor Simutenkov after the 2004 US Open Cup final to celebrate.

    Igor earned it.

    If I recall, the goal sequence is some of Wade's finest work as a photographer. I got the celebration from the far end of the field - the Fire were actually paying me to shoot the game.

    EDIT: Here's Wade's gallery

    Getty has whittled down my shots to only 4 remaining. Maybe I'll put some older stuff back up.

    Here's a picture from Thad's site:

    I don't have the one just left and above the center. It's black with the adidas logo on the end and "Kansas City" in black on white and "Wizards" in blue on white.

    That and the blue/white bar scarf are two I don't have.

    And I'm missing the one they're selling on MLSgear. But it's on sale for $6.95, so I'm taking care of that right now. :D

    Oh, and I don't have one of the Wizards Franzi scarves. The ones that the logo is visible when draped around the wearer. They've been using those at the draft for years.

    The black one was a team-sold scarf I'm pretty sure. I'd be happy to send you any of mine, but I think you have them all. I don't own either of the two you posted above. If anyone has an extra double-winners scarf PM me, mine got jacked awhile ago by someone at a game.

    Okay, I'm up three (or possibly four):

    1 - Blue/White bar scarf
    2 - Black one from the photo
    3 - Franzi scarf
    4 - I remember a weird one some overseas collector posted an image of, claimed he got it from ebay. Probably a manufacturing sample.

    I just went to Ruffneck Scarves. The Wizards are the only MLS team not listed.

    So it ends up being a bit late as you already seem to know you're missing them, but I did the work so I'm putting it up, damnit.

    I have only two scarves, but I'm gonna start getting them at every single opportunity in the future. Hope they'll have some later today.

    Thanks for the images!

    Yep, I'm missing all four* of those, plus the bar scarf.

    Here's the important question.

    How the hell do I get them?

    *unless those are just two scarves flipped over in the second photo.

    I should have the 2009 scarf around here pictured at the bottom. Give me some time to get it together, but I'll mail it to you.

    Those are just two scarves, showing both sides. Sorry, should've clarified that better.

    Here's some where thing I'll probably never find:
    3 - I remember a weird one some overseas collector posted an image of, claimed he got it from ebay. Probably a manufacturing sample.
