The team's original colors were teal and gold; however the teal was changed to green from 2003 until mid 2007.

It was rumored that Beckham helped design the new logo and kits.
The Galaxy were one of the ten founding members of Major League Soccer, that began play in 1996. The club played their home games at the Rose Bowl from 1996–2002 until they moved into their own soccer-specific stadium, The Home Depot Center in Carson, California, in 2003. Since the 2005 season, The Home Depot Center has been shared with Chivas USA.
The Galaxy have the highest all-time attendance in league history and are the first MLS team to make a profit in a season. The Galaxy have two main supporters clubs known as The Galaxians, and The Los Angeles Riot Squad. Their mascot is known as "Cozmo," a frog-like extraterrestrial.
Recently, the Galaxy have attracted extensive media attention for being the first MLS team to take advantage of the Designated Player Rule, also known as the "Beckham Rule," by signing the rule's namesake David Beckham to a contract worth $50 million over five years, although with outside endorsements and profit sharing, Beckham will likely make up to $250 million, primarily paid by Galaxy owner Philip Anschutz through his company, AEG.
