While some in Louisiana may love eating raccoon, this one wasn’t on the menu.
Students at a Louisiana State University dining hall Wednesday night had a wild surprise when a raccoon came crashing through the ceiling while they were eating.
Videos posted on social media show the raccoon looking confused and at one point, trying to get into a backpack. Students can be seen standing on tables and chairs while the four-legged visitor chaotically runs around.

Animal control officials were eventually called in to safely catch the dinner crasher.
