The Kansas City Wizards are back ... kind of.

As part of its 20th-anniversary celebrations, Sporting Kansas City will pay homage to its club history, by way of the Kansas City Wiz, and will wear special throwback jerseys with rainbow-coloured numbers when they take on the Colorado Rapids on April 13.
