Wife of Former Player Becomes Unlikely Star of LSU White House Visit
A woman we now know is Gemi Bordelon is the talk of the LSU Football world tonight. She may very well be getting more attention than the players who were honored at the White House today. A TikTock post taken in a holding area features players and Bordelon getting in on the "Get The Gat Challenge". It's something the team has embraced as their very own "Choppa Style" [a la New Orleans Saints] leading up to the CFB National Championship.
So who is she? Gemi Bordelon is married to former LSU and NFL player Ben Bordelon. In a funny twist, it was her daughter who first identified her in a tweet, saying "that would be my mom". The team was honored by President Trump today and was even invited to the Oval Office for a tour. The team will board floats for a victory parade tomorrow on LSU's campus.
