Jayden's Wish to go to an LSU Football Game

In partnership with the Make-A-Wish East Tennessee chapter, and Louisiana State University, we granted a dream football wish for 16-year-old Jayden from Mountain City, Tennessee.

Jayden, who battles a brain tumor, has been a lifelong LSU fan and wished to go to a football game. He loves Tiger Stadium and said visiting LSU’s stadium would be his “most exciting day.” Excitement was an understatement for Jayden, who not only got to attend the football game, but meet his favorite player, Kryen Lacey, which was captured on camera by LSU plus, debuting on ESPN.

Jayden’s smile beamed from ear-to-ear as he got the opportunity to spend three days in Death Valley, from touring the practice facility, to watching the game live from the 50/50-yard line. Fanatics also gifted Jayden an LSU shopping spree from the Fanatics team store. Fanatics is the official sports partner of Make-A-Wish. He also got an opportunity to facetime with Jayden Daniels, the 2023 Heisman Trophy winner for LSU, who is currently playing for the Washington Commanders. THANK YOU LSU!
