One of the old mascots has been retired to the Bruin Hall of Fame. They have participated in other events for UCLA in addition to athletic events.
In 1984, the UCLA Alumni Association celebrated its 50th anniversary by presenting a statue of "The Bruin", located at Bruin Plaza, to the university (see picture above). It is billed as the largest bear statue in the United States, with a length of 10 feet, a width of 6 feet, 3 feet and weighs more than 2 tons.
The Solid Gold Sound from the UCLA Bruin Marching Band entertained the crowds in the Bruin game. School fight songs are "Sons of Westwood" and "The Mighty Bruins".
The spirit team includes the cheering squad, the dance team, and the shouting crew next to the mascot. UCLA alumni band is the official band of gymnastics team at school.
Rivalry
UCLA shares a traditional sports competition with nearby Southern California University (USC). This competition is relatively unique in the NCAA Division's sport as both schools are located within the same city, Los Angeles. The Lexus Gauntlet is the name given to the now defunct competition between UCLA and USC at 18 sports universities both of which compete head-to-head; in 2003, 2005 and 2007 UCLA won the Lexus Gauntlet Trophy, while the University of Southern California won the trophy in 2002, 2004, 2006, 2008, and 2009. The official sponsoring competition was held from 2001 until the end of the license contract in 2009 the annual football showcasing both teams competing for Victory Bell.
California and UCLA have met annually in the football field since 1939. Since UCLA was established as a southern branch of the University of California, this series takes on the quality of sibling rivalry. The series was dominated early by Cal, followed by dominance by UCLA in the 1950s to the 80s, and has become more balanced recently.
UCLA has a basketball competition with Notre Dame, with games played every year from 1966 to 1995. After UCLA's victory on 7 February 2009, UCLA led the all-time series 28-19. UCLA and Arizona performance influenced the national opinion of the conference.
UCLA Athletic Hall of Fame
From 1993 to 1999 the school had a clothing contract with Reebok.
In 1999, an agreement was reached with Adidas for six years, ending in June 2005. The agreement is to provide equipment and clothing for 21 UCLA inter-university teams. Additional terms of the agreement include internship opportunities for UCLA students and an exclusive license to wear athletic replicas. The reported monetary terms of the agreement include $ 1,625 million in cash and $ 1.3 million in equipment annually.
In 2005, the deal was renewed for $ 2.6 million in cash and $ 1.6 million in equipment. Additional terms include one full-time Adidas employee on UCLA campus, $ 2,500 annually for "non-UCLA charity" projects selected by the head coach of Soccer or Basketball, a game ticket for Adidas executives, a thank you radio during the game, and appearances by the head coach of soccer and basketball at the Adidas show.
In April 2010, a letter of intent to update was achieved between UCLA Athletics and Adidas. In June of the same year, the terms of the agreement were settled but not published. In his report, UCLA Athletic Director Dan Guerrero stated that the deal was for seven years and "will be close" to a deal that Adidas had with Michigan worth $ 7.5 million.
In May 2016, UCLA signed a 15-year, 280 million agreement with Under Armor sportswear manufacturer that began in the 2017-18 season.
