We hope you can join us for this annual tradition!

The Turkey Tussle football game is an annual tradition between Pasadena High School and cross town rival John Muir High School.  This tradition began in 1947 when the game was played between Pasadena Community College and John Muir Junior College. These two schools played until 1953.  In 1954 the annual rivalry was played between what was now Pasadena High School and John Muir High School. 

The winning school takes possession of a ceremonial Victory Bell. One of the highlights for the winning team is to rush to the end zone, celebrating their win, by ringing the Victory Bell. In June 2005, the John Muir campus was burglarized and the Victory Bell was stolen.  On February 7, 2006 the Victory Bell was found near a road in the Angeles National Forest.
