would anyone know him, or how to find him?

The reason I ask is because I own the bowl helmet he played with in that game and would like to give it to him. I bought it as a student back then and as life moves along it's not something I need and thought he might enjoy having it.

If so, please reply in this thread and we can figure out a way to communicate.

I know him and have some stories about him and yes they we’re getting paid then. He had a brand new Cadillac Escalade with 22s on it strait out of the hood.

He loved the white woman too, he was trying to hit on my girlfriend one night and I almost knocked him out. Sorry but don’t have his number. He was a good dude though.

I know him well. Look him up on Facebook under Floss boss or Instagram under Flossay1. He should respond if you message him. Yes, he’s married to a white woman now but he was no different than any other LSU player. They all banged white girls.

Let me know if Facebook doesn’t work for you. He was coming into Hammond high as I was going out. I’m sure we have common ex-teammates I can reach out to. I know sure as hell I’d like to have it back if it were me. If for no other reason than to give it to my kids.

Glad you mentioned Fred. I had not heard his name for many years, but thought he was a capable defensive back.

He made some plays for the Tigers, as I recall. I think a DB of his skills would be very much a welcome addition for this season, as the depth at that position is running thin.

I have a sweat band that he gave me after a home game. I don’t know what year or which game. I was probably around 5 or 6 years old.

Contact Robert Alford with the Cardinals. He is Fred’s younger brother.

That face when you start a thread about trying to do something nice for a person you don’t know, but then the thread turning into people just talking about how big of a shithead he is.

I was not able to get a reply from Fred Booker over the IG. Does anyone know other way to get in touch? I'd like to return this helmet, otherwise, will sell it to interested party.
