A TikToker who goes around the country trying to get into Division 1 football stadiums and seeing how long he can stay inside Major League Baseball parks recently snuck into L&N Stadium at the University of Louisville.
Somewhat surprisingly, the fan, who goes by the handle @gfed33 on TikTok, was actually able to make his way inside the Cardinals’ football stadium with ease.
“If you drive by a campus with a D1 football team you’ve got to see if you can walk on the field,” he begins his TikTok video, which has now been viewed over 1.6 million times.
“First gates we’re seeing are gonna be locked, but that’s usually gonna be the case,” he continued. “These schools like to make us work.”
After checking out some other gates, it turns out that he should have just gone to the main gate to begin with because it was wide open.
Then, with almost no effort, he figured out how to walk right on to the field.
@gfed33 After a B1G focus I decided to step out a bit this weekend. Taking a look through the land lf Bourbon, Papa Johns, and Lamar Jackson . . . . #Louisville #UofL #collegefootball #collegebasketball ♬ original sound – Gfed
Rather than get into any trouble, perhaps because he respected the “house rules” of staying off of the turf (except for one step, just to say he did it), the University of Louisville actually responded and offered for him to come to a game.
“Glad you liked our digs, @GFed33!” the Louisville Football Twitter account wrote.
“Louie must’ve forgotten to shut the gate after his morning workout. He’s always ruffling feathers around here!
“Anyways, how about you come back for a home game and a proper tour?”
There’s only one school I’ve made a video at coming to Louisville this season, and haven’t seen an invite to a game from them….
Choice is easy. Loyalty is laid.

Other college football stadiums he has tried to sneak into this year include the University of Cincinnati (which happened on Monday), Purdue University, and Michigan State University.
@gfed33 This Stadium is known to not just be open 24/7, but also encourged to use. Great concept, terrible Tiktok. S/o my guy @Matthew for some extra lore . . . . #Cincinnati #cincinnatibearcats #collegefootball #collegebasketball ♬ original sound – Gfed
