  • A group of people gathered in a lively indoor setting, wearing garnet and black clothing with the South Carolina Gamecocks logo. They are holding a Gamecocks flag and posing happily for the photo, with a colorful mural and wooden ceiling in the background.
  • A large group of people gathered in a venue, many wearing sports jerseys and holding a flag that reads 'USC ALUMNI'. The atmosphere is festive, with decorations likely related to a sports event, and a prominent Gamecock logo on the floor mat.
  • A group of USC alumni poses for a picture in a decorated venue, holding a USC flag. The background features pink balloons and streamers, and a scoreboard displaying game stats is visible on a screen. The group includes both men and women, some wearing USC gear, with one person holding a foam finger, and a dog sitting at their feet.
  • A group of young adults poses together in a casual bar setting, holding a USC Alumni flag. They are making hand gestures with smiles, with a mix of drinks visible on the table. The background features a bar area and illuminated screens.
  • A group of about 25 people wearing red t-shirts posing together outdoors, some holding a flag with a South Carolina design, and one person sitting on the grass holding a football. The scene is set in a lush green park.
