Some football rivalries are worthy of Klingon Song!
It’s hard to talk about any rivalry without mentioning the fact that the Southern California Trojans and the UCLA Bruins compete in just about everything they do for the title of the city crown and bragging rights for an entire year.
Laura and I traveled down to Los Angeles and had the good fortune to stay right next to campus at the Radisson Hotel. This was wonderful in not having to hassle the normal traffic when 100,000 folks decide to all leave at the same time!
The night before the big USC-UCLA football game we atended the NCAA Regional Women’s Volleyball match at the Galen Center. We’ve been here before and it is a singularly impressive facility.
Before the match we walked around campus and Laura took a picture of me sitting with some of the ‘Trojan Knights’ guarding the statue of Tommy Trojan from Bruins who like to throw Blue and Gold on him. In fact, they held a big party all night long with fun booths and food called “Save Tommy Night.”
Laura posted some of the pictures the two of us took of the weekend . Fun Times!

My ol’ college roommate was a good sport sitting with us in the Trojan Section… it only hurt for a little while!
