The cross-town rivalry continues! On November 26th, Rotarians across the District showed up at the 5th annual "USC vs. UCLA Tailgate Luncheon" hosted by the four Torrance Rotary clubs and Redondo Beach Rotary club. Rotarians supporting USC and UCLA were greeted by the school mascots- USC's Traveler and Tommy Trojan and UCLA's Joe Bruin. Once inside the Double Tree hotel, the fans were treated to a healthy dose of rivalry trash talking, a spirited live auction, and lively anecdotes from USC's J.K. McKay and UCLA's Kevin Jordan. UCLA rang the victory bell this year, but it was a win-win for the athletic programs of the Torrance Unified School District and Redondo Union High School, for whom the luncheon's proceeds benefitted.
