This is awesome, really glad Rockstar added the Gooch outfit this year! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone!

[@TeamCraftable2004]

This is my first time being able to enjoy a gta Online christmas!

[@SilkyMilkyOriginal]

If I'm in a session with one other person, but the other person is in one of their properties and I'm on foot, will the Gooch still spawn for me, or does the other person need to be outside too?

[@IIIIIIllIIIllII]

Won’t mean shit in 2 years lol

[@Dreamcatcher9000]

@@SilkyMilkyOriginal I guess that the way they write it in the description at 1:26 ("the players") justifies your confusion. They should have written "the player" instead. No matter what the OTHERS do in the session, YOU must fulfil that criteria, if you want the Gooch to attack you.

[@SilkyMilkyOriginal]

@@Dreamcatcher9000 I got it yesterday. I can confirm that my method does work.

[@FatalSteven]

All we need is The Beast outfit! Hopefully Halloween 2024.

[@xXSilentAgent47Xx]

Won't happen because there's Hunt the Beast event and would create big mess. They already got rid of USS Luxington because of constant spawning as business battle.

[@The_Don_]

Still have the mask from last year but its gonna be cool getting the whole outfit aswell!

[@JordanC856]

I wanted the outfit so bad last year and I remember getting so mad just getting the mask. After struggling so long to get the gooch 😅

Does the gooch only spawn once every lobby or is there another 48 minute cooldown?

[@yioqi]

it spawns every 48 minutes

So u get both things which is the outfit and the mask or just the outfit cuz I have the mask on my second account

Gooch

[@aintezy]

for me I went to yeti and both yeti and grinch attacked me

[@AlmondChocolateMilk]

Incase you didn’t know, “Gooch” is a slang term for your perineum: the small patch of skin located between your sack and your hole.

[@asterixking]

Classic Rockstar and their sense of humor.

[@nicholassmith41]

I did literally every requirement for the Gooch to spawn, but he never did. I even waited a few in game days

[@asterixking]

What I did was set my spawn location to last location so that if you're outside when you join a new session you'll be outside immediately and the Gooch will have a much higher chance of spawning. May luck be on your side.
