Ex-LSU football coach Ed Orgeron goes viral after dancing without his shirt
By JAMES COHEN
Ex-LSU football coach Ed Orgeron has caught attention after a video of him dancing without a shirt on - at a former colleague's wedding - went viral on social media.
The clip surfaced on Sunday evening and showed the 63-year-old leading the festivities at the plush event in New Orleans, Louisiana over the weekend.
The clip - which has been viewed nearly 250,000 times on TikTok and almost one million times on X - saw Orgeron deliver a quick speech before busting some moves on the dance floor.
He bellowed out 'Geaux Tigers' to the crowd in attendance before footage cut to later in the evening - where Orgeron was preparing to take off his shirt.
The former LSU coach unbuttoned his top - amid cheers from those watching on - before raising it above his head and high-fiving one of his pals near him.
The user who posted the clip onto X captioned it: 'Former #LSU head coach Ed Orgeron was back in Louisiana last night to celebrate a former Tigers staffer’s wedding in New Orleans.

Orgeron reached the summit of college football during his time coaching LSU from 2016-2021
'Safe to say Coach O enjoyed himself back in the Bayou State on Saturday night'.
In response to the viral video, fans were split in opinion over the actions from the former LSU Tigers head coach.
'He's so gross,' one user bluntly wrote. In a similar tone, another said: 'Pitiful. Imagine going to a former staffers wedding and making it all about yourself.'
However, some fans loved it. One wrote: 'Gotta be the most likeable guy on the planet'.
'Ed O getting it!', another fan wrote - with a 'laughing emoji' and 'clapping emoji' accompanying his message.
Orgeron made a name for himself as the head coach of the LSU Tigers from 2016 to 2021, especially after the team went on a 15-0 run during the 2019 season.
It ultimately led to the Tigers winning a national championship in January 2020 under then-quarterback Joe Burrow - defeating the Clemson Tigers, led by then-quarterback Trevor Lawrence at the time.
Two seasons later and Orgeron was out of the door at LSU.

In footage shared on TikTok, Orgeron could be seen approaching two beachgoers while appearing to hold hands with a woman who is believed to be his fiancee.
'Getting rizzed up by coach O,' read the video's caption.
Just a month prior to that video, Orgeron had announced on social media that he got engaged to his girlfriend, Brandy Nicole.
The college football coach filed for a divorce from his previous wife, Kelly, in April 2020. The two had been been married for 23 years.
But, that appeared to not matter much to fans on TikTok, who praised Orgeron's 'rizz' or 'game' with the ladies in the video's comment section.
