LSU athlete jumps for joy during snowfall

(KSLA) - It rarely ever snows in Louisiana. However, on Friday, all around the state, some Louisianans had some considerable snowfall.

For one Da'Quan Bellard, a Louisiana State University track and field athlete, it was a cause for celebration.

A video he tweeted of him caught the attention of Twitter with nearly 2,000 retweets and nearly 3,000 likes.

In the video, he dances, in the snow while singing Vanessa Carlton's "A Thousand Miles," (good choice) catches snowflakes on his tongue, and rolls around in some fresh powder.

"They say it wasn't gonna snow, but it did!" Bellard shouts in the video.
