Liberty City Cocks

The Liberty City Cocks is a soccer team based in Liberty City in both 3D Universe and HD Universe.

3D Universe
In GTA III (2001) the team seems to be playing at Liberty Memorial Coliseum (also known as Bush Stadium) in Aspatria, Staunton Island, while in GTA Liberty City Stories (1998), the stadium is under construction. In GTA Liberty City Stories, the team has an official fan club whose main building is right across the stadium. Many Cocks fans can be seen walking around Bush Stadium and some can even be heard asking others if they are a fan of the Liberty City Beavers (their fierce rivals). The Cocks and the Beavers have known meetings, implying that there is a fierce rivalry/derby.

In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, on The Tight End Zone, a program on West Coast Talk Radio, Derrick Thackery mentions a match between Liberty City Cocks and Liberty City Beavers. The second occurs in September 2001, with the Cocks beating the Beavers 3-0.

In Grand Theft Auto Advance, Asuka Kasen orders Mike to injure one of Vice City Mambas quarterbacks to increases the chances of the Liberty City Cocks winning the match.

Oddly, despite the fact that the team crest and rivalry with the Beavers, plus an article from Liberty Tree, all show that they are a team, the field inside the stadium and the "Two-Hand Toss" mission suggests that they play American football. This may be an oversight by Rockstar, however it is possible that the Cocks also field a football team; this is somewhat akin to the, who shared an association with the. Additionally, there was an American football team called the in the 1940s, who were owned by, a former part-owner of the MLB's New York Yankees.

HD Universe
There are still many references to the LC Cocks in the HD Universe. Eduard Borodin was visiting Liberty City to purchase the team according to an Liberty Tree internet article after the mission Paper Trail. Theres also an LC Cocks book in Luis' Apartment in The Ballad of Gay Tony. Presumably, they share a rivalry with the Liberty City Beavers as well as Red Mist XI.

In Grand Theft Auto V, Liberty City Cocks tank tops can be purchased at Binco store.
