Greet is Good — This coming Saturday at 1:00pm in Pauley Pavilion is the annual UCLA Spirit Squad All-Access Reception. Come eat hors d’oeuvres, drink cocktails, win prizes, and meet Bruin Athletes, Coaches, National Champions, and of course, the best Cheerleaders in the Country
It’s that time of year again — One of the best events of the whole calendar year: The UCLA Spirit Squad All-Access Reception. Held this Saturday at 1:00pm in the Pavilion Club inside iconic Pauley Pavilion, this Meet n’ Greet features the opportunity to speak with the members of the legendary UCLA Dance Team, Cheer Squad, and Yell Crew.
That would be enough right there to justify attendance, but there’s a lot more. Great food, including fancy appetizers, beer, wine, and alcoholic lemonade-type drinks are all included in your admission, the cost of which goes entirely to SUPPORT the squad.
In attendance will be certain Bruin Coaches and Athletes (Josh Rosen came last year), all usually willing to take selfies with you, talk Sports, sign autographs, etc. There will also be opportunity drawings where you can win all sorts of great prizes, many of which are Bruin-related. I have won things in the past, including the honor of being a judge for the Cheerleader Tryouts. I have also won a basketball autographed by the whole Bruin team. My point is, the FIX ISN’T IN. Even an outsider like me can win big.
And if you really want to support the squad, there is a SILENT AUCTION currently underway. Check the UCLA Spirit website, and you can bid online right now. 6 pages of amazing prizes are available, from hotels in Hawaii to Basketball Courtside Seats, to a chance to have UCLA Cheerleaders babysit for you!!
Please come support these totally deserving young students as they continue to be the best ambassadors that you could possibly ask for UCLA to have. As an extra incentive, here are 49 more photos of the Spirit Squad from the South Dakota Basketball game earlier this season…
Please ignore the photo below. I’m just using it here to post on a message board, in order to throw shade at someone who thinks our Spirit Squad is too sexy/unwholesome for UCLA to endorse.
