What is Psychogate?
Psychogate is the longest running, biggest and best fan-run tailgate on campus. It’s organized by one of USC’s most diehard and well known fans, USC Psycho. Psychogate is right in the middle of campus and is open to everyone. Don’t be shy, come join the party on gameday!
The tailgate is on the strip of grass in the middle of Trousdale, in front of Bovard Auditorium and about 150 feet north of Tommy Trojan. Right against the first lamp post north of the flag pole. Foursquare has a pretty good map too.
If you have any trouble finding the tailgate on game day, send a tweet to @uscpsycho.
6 a.m. until Kick Off
You read that right. We're there from 6 a.m. and don’t stop until right before kick-off. Every. Single. Home game. The tailgate has a satellite dish, two HDTVs, Jagermeister tap machine and lots of other tailgate goodies. So we always have a great time and watch college football all day.
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.
Don't be a Mooch. Help Out.
Psychogate is only successful because of YOU. You can support the operation by buying our AWESOME SHIRTS, donating your time, or bringing along a bottle of Jagermeister. Check #PsychoGate for the up-to-the-minute news and to see if there’s anything we are in urgent need of.
