The 2006 '''[[Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup]]''' ran from June through September, open to all [[soccer]] teams in the United States.

The [[Chicago Fire S.C.|Chicago Fire]] won 3–1 over defending-champion [[Los Angeles Galaxy]] in the final at [[Toyota Park (Bridgeview)|Toyota Park]] in [[Bridgeview, Illinois]]. It was the Fire's fourth Open Cup title in nine years.

The early rounds were most notable for the surprising run of amateur side [[Dallas Roma F.C.]] of the [[North Texas Premier Soccer Association]]. Roma barely survived the first round in a [[Penalty shootout (association football)|penalty shootout]] win over PDL side [[Laredo Heat]] before upsetting [[Miami FC (2006)|Miami FC]] of the [[USL First Division]] 1–0 in the second round. Roma's biggest upset came in the third round with another shootout win, this time over [[Club Deportivo Chivas USA|CD Chivas USA]].

The latter rounds of the tournament were dominated by [[Major League Soccer|MLS]] teams and both semifinals were matchups between conference rivals. The Galaxy, who had ended Roma's Cinderella run, beat [[Houston Dynamo]] in one semifinal, while Chicago beat league leader [[D.C. United]] in the other semifinal. In the championship game played at first-year [[Toyota Park (Bridgeview)|Toyota Park]], the host side scored two early goals en route to their 3–1 win.
