Keg Stands at LSU With Mary Landrieu

September 21, 2014

Sen. Mary Landrieu (D., La.) spent her Saturday in Baton Rouge and was photographed holding a beer tap to a man's mouth while he performed a keg stand.

The Hill reports:

A photo from the event appears to show Landrieu—one of the most vulnerable Democratic incumbents this year— holding the keg's spigot while a young man dressed in the Tigers' purple and gold does a handstand on the keg and other participants hold his legs. A crowd of onlookers cheers him on.

A source close to the campaign said the man was in his late 20s and was enjoying a tailgate with his friends and family. The source also said his father was at the tailgating party with him.

Keg stands are common events at college campuses. The goal of doing one is to drink as much as possible while doing the hand stand.

Though the tailgate looks like it was fun, the game surely was not for fans of the LSU Tigers. They fell to Mississippi St. by a score of 34-29, breaking a streak of 22 consecutive wins by the Tigers when playing at home during the month of September.

It is unclear whether Landrieu will be invited back for the next game in Baton Rouge.
