"Inter Miami would follow the longstanding tradition in American sport of commemorating a league title with a White House reception. D.C. United stood as the first MLS team to attend the White House in 1998 following their Cup triumph, while the LA Galaxy visited on multiple occasions by winning in 2011, 2012 and 2014."
"The Herons lifted the 2025 MLS Cup on December 6, defeating the Vancouver Whitecaps 3-1 at Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale to mark the team's first ever league trophy. Though the team previously lifted the Supporters' Shield and Leagues Cup trophy, the MLS Cup remained an unachieved target until finally clinching the title last season."
