Americana at Brand developer and USC grad Rick Caruso has invited the USC Marching Band, Song Girls, Yell Leaders, Tommy Trojan and Traveler (the university's Andalusian horse and mascot) for a pep rally Monday, December 29 at 6pm at the mall, in preparation for the Rose Bowl New Year's Day versus Penn State. In case you don't hear the horns and drums and rah-rahs, it's all going down at the mall's outdoor concert stage, so depending on your affection or lack their of for USC or Americana, you know when to show up or stay away.
