PSYCHOGATE BEGINS
1:30 PM ON NOVEMBER 23
Psychogate will be happening this Saturday 11/23 at the Rose Bowl for the crosstown rivalry game against UCLA.
This is an especially meaningful game for me because it will be the 400th game of my streak of going to every home and road USC football game. Come have a drink with me to celebrate!
We will meet at 12:30pm in the parking lot of Ralphs by the Rose Bowl, the address is 320 West Colorado Boulevard, Pasadena, CA 91105. From there we will caravan over to the Rose Bowl and park together on the golf course. We will leave Ralph's at 12:45pm sharp. If you need to go shopping then get there earlier!
All are welcome but I don't know who is with our group and who isn't, so if you're joining us find me and let me know. I'm in a white truck with L❤️VE USC license plates.
If you know you are joining us, please pre-purchase your parking because it will make our entrance much smoother. You can purchase your parking for the game here. You will also save 25% by pre-purchasing, if you wait until you arrive, the parking will be $59.
The bare essentials will be supplied so please bring whatever you'd like to eat/drink and some extra to share. If you would like a killer steak, you can order one at PsychogateSteaks.com. Vic Orly, our official grill master, will buy, prep and cook your steak to order at the tailgate. Supply is limited so order as early as possible. No steak orders will be accepted after Thursday at 12pm.
If you don't meet us at Ralphs follow @uscpsycho on Twitter for updates about the exact tailgating location, I will tweet a pin that you can follow to find us. I will also tweet requests in case there is anything we need.
We will have a TV at the tailgate so we can watch the other football games before ours.
See you there!
FIGHT ON!!!!
What is Psychogate?
Psychogate is the longest running, biggest and best fan-run USC tailgate!
Psychogate is run by fans, for fans and it's all about the Trojan Family. It's where you can go on any game day to tailgate with fellow Trojans. We have TV, a Fireball shot machine, great food, steaks cooked to order and most importantly lots of great USC football fans! It's organized by one of USC's most dedicated and well-known fans, USC Psycho.
All are welcome! Just bring a good attitude and something to share!
Kids are welcome to join the tailgate as long as you don't mind if they are exposed to the mature language that they will inevitably hear from adults at a tailgate.
Opposing teams' fans are always welcome at Psychogate! If you are visiting USC please feel free to join us and we'll show you some genuine Trojan hospitality. We just ask that if you plan to make Psychogate your gameday destination that you make a contribution to the tailgate (see Gameday Contributions below).
Psychogate Code
All fans are welcome to join the tailgate! Yes, that includes opposing fans too! Good sportsmanship is expected from EVERYONE or you’ll be asked to leave. Psychogate is about having a good time with good people. If you want to trash talk, do it somewhere else. No exceptions!
No smoking/vaping of any kind is allowed at Psychogate.
Gameday Contributions
We ask all attendees to support Psychogate by bringing something to share. If you aren't sure what to bring you can check @uscpsycho for the up-to-the-minute news and to see if there’s anything we are in urgent need of. Fireball Whisky, Skrewball and Rumchata are Psychogate staples and are always a safe bet. So is beer and seltzers, bring your favorite brand and some extra to share.
Ice Chests and Chairs
We can always use more. If you have a cooler we can use, bring it. If you have chairs, bring them.
Ice
We never seem to have enough ice. Ice is always a welcome contribution. And it's cheap too!
Booze, Drinks and Mixers
Bring your favorite drink and some to share. We welcome non-alcoholic contributions too, like water, soda and energy drinks!
Grill
You are welcome to bring food to cook on the grill but if your food needs to be kept cold please bring your own cooler. No food is to be placed in coolers with drinks under any circumstances (if we find your food in our coolers it will be disposed without warning). We may have someone manning the grill or you may have to grill your own food. Please share the grill and treat the grill with respect so that we can all enjoy it for many years.
Food
Bring your favorite tailgate recipe, chips, dips, salsa, guacamole, nuts, veggie trays, sandwiches, pizza, cupcakes, whatever. Bring it. We'll eat it.
Cash
Hosting tailgates isn't free. There are many expenses and fees associated with hosting this event for every game. If you are enjoying yourself at Psychogate please pitch in a few bucks to help cover expenses.
Stripper Pole
If you want to, we're not going to say no...
