From the first step I took, I felt the immense Gamecock spirit that radiated from campus. Not long after I made my decision to attend USC, I saw the same Gamecock spirit in my home state of North Carolina – having “GO COCKS!” yelled at me, just for wearing a USC baseball cap. Over the past few years, I’ve realized that Gamecock spirit is widespread and is not confined to the Columbia region. Though there’s nothing that compares to the cheering that fills Williams-Brice stadium – or the joy of holding a Gamecock legend, Sir Big Spur – the Gamecock spirit truly has no limits.
