He was on my FB the other day, as it seems like he is a mutual of a couple of my friends.

Pretty sure I saw he was from French Settlement.

The Livingston Parish native caught national attention when cameras panned to him during LSU’s third-inning rally during the championship game Saturday. Ardoin was seen enthusiastically swinging a set of beads around his neck, a move he’s since dubbed his signature
