...pajamarino. The freshmen men annually put on pajamas for the rally before the game with Southern California. The festivities begin with the freshmen parading down fraternity row. The frat men line up on both sides of the street with stale fruit and water hoses. Freshmen survivors of this-proceed to the basketball court where they become the feature attraction of the rally.
