Watching Football Is Better With Bruins

When the game is on the line and the Bruins are making that final drive down the field, what better atmosphere is there to be in than a crowd of True Bruin fans? From 8-Claps and high fives to witty comments and bar stool sports analysis, game watch parties bring all the excitement of college football to you. Join in the fun and camaraderie this football season by coming to a watch party near you. Don't see one in your area? Contact us to host a game watch at your local sports bar.

UCLA in the 1950s

The UCLA history by decade series continues with the era of innovation, spirit and growth. The 1950s brought about UCLA’s first chancellor, a new medical center and two Nobel Laureates. It was a time of celebration with Bell Rallies, grand Homecoming parades and UCLA Football’s first and only national championship.
