Today, September 30, 2025, was supposed to be a memorable day for Kool-Aid McKinstry – the talented cornerback of the New Orleans Saints – as he officially turned 23. But instead of a lavish party or extravagant gifts, this young star found himself in a hilarious yet awkward situation: being denied entry by the Louis Vuitton (LV) store security just because... he was dressed too "casual"!
According to exclusive sources we've gathered, McKinstry decided to treat himself to a luxurious shopping spree at the famous LV store in the city center. As an up-and-coming NFL athlete, the guy planned to pick up a few high-end items to celebrate his birthday. However, as soon as he approached the door, security immediately blocked him and politely (but firmly) asked him to leave. The reason? McKinstry's outfit that day was just old jeans, a simple t-shirt, and sneakers – looking no different from an ordinary guy strolling the streets, not a superstar with a multi-million-dollar contract!
"It was a real shock! Kool-Aid just wanted to enjoy his birthday comfortably, never expecting to be 'misunderstood' like that," a source close to him shared. "He laughed it off and walked away, but clearly this is a lesson that 'appearance' sometimes matters more than you think, even for big stars."
The incident quickly spread on social media, with Saints fans expressing outrage: "What does LV think kicking out Kool-Aid? He could buy the whole store!" Some others joked that this was McKinstry's "challenge" to test for discrimination. Either way, this young star kept his professional composure, posting a story on Instagram with a humorous caption: "Happy birthday? Probably need to wear a suit to get into LV next time! 😂"
This isn't the first time famous athletes have faced similar situations, but with McKinstry – the guy who once made waves at Alabama Crimson Tide before joining the Saints – this incident adds even more drama. Will LV apologize? Or will Kool-Aid "get revenge" by shopping online? We'll update with the hottest info! What do you think about this birthday drama? Share right below!
