Horses Caught on NSFW Live Cam Leads to Hilarious TV Blooper on Lafayette’s News 15
In a live broadcast primed for unexpected moments, KADN News 15's meteorologist, Adam Olivier, found himself in a particularly sticky situation—literally! This morning (May 9) on Good Day Acadiana, what was supposed to be a routine weather update turned into a live blooper reel featuring a couple of our four-legged friends in Church Point.
As the camera cut from Good Day anchor Alex Worstell-Conrad to the Church Point Tower Camera for the weather scoop, viewers were treated not to cloudy skies but to an unexpected display of affection between two frisky horses. Imagine the scene: instead of morning dew, we've got... well, let’s say they were really enjoying the pasture!
Alex's reaction was priceless—her face transformed into a live meme as she momentarily lost all speech. But Adam galloped to the rescue, sliding over to the live shot to shield Acadiana's innocent eyes from the passionate pair. This proved that when it comes to live and local TV, you've got to be ready for anything.
The clip quickly trotted onto social media, with Adam sharing the hilarity on his Instagram account @adamolivierwx, saying, “Sometimes animals surprise you on live TV…certainly wasn’t expecting this from our horse cam this morning!” Co-anchor Alex chimed in on her story, cheekily noting: “HUMPDAY ON A THURSDAY”.
Social media users didn't hold back, galavanting in with comments as one cleverly recalled Olivier’s weather forecast, jesting, “definitely a warm sticky start”.
While it might not have been the proudest moment for the horses of Acadia Parish, it was undeniably a golden moment for live local TV on KADN News 15. Hats off to the Good Day Acadiana team for sharing a good laugh and reminding everyone that in the world of live broadcasting, anything is possible—and sometimes, that means horseplay—literally!
