Ragin’ Cajuns Sign Gary Haynes—The Vine Star Who Threw A Football Thirty Yards To Himself

The Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns just signed Gary Haynes—the Texas teen who went viral for throwing a football thirty yards to himself.

To this day, no one really knows if the Vine video was real or fake—but either way, we welcome Haynes to Cajun Country and look forward to seeing him on the field representing for Coach Hud and our Ragin' Cajuns football team.
