Police were forced to intervene after several LSU players took exception to an Arkansas player’s pre-game ritual on Saturday night.
Arkansas offensive lineman Sebastian Tretola has a pre-game ritual where he gathers players at midfield and does a dance to motivate his teammates. Tretola performs the dance at home and away games.
But when he tried to do it at LSU’s Tiger Stadium on Saturday night, several LSU players noticed, and took exception to an opposing player dancing on their logo. The Tigers players approached Tretola, expressed their displeasure and asked him to stop.
A police sergeant intervened before there were any incidents, and forced Tretola and the other players to leave the area.

Tretola dances at midfield before every game. It’s not something special to LSU. https://t.co/Awckh918LX
