It may look like Odell Beckham Jr. was handing out wads of cash to LSU players after Monday night's national title game, but LSU assures us that is not the case at all.
You see, it was actually fake money that OBJ dapped into their hands.

A video of Odell Beckham Jr. appearing to hand out money to players after the national championship circled this morning.

An #LSU athletics official says it was fake money.https://t.co/8KEWma4NKY
Yes, LSU's official statement about the incident is that Odell Beckham Jr. brought a stack of extremely realistic-looking fake hundred-dollar bills to the stadium to celebrate a national title win, because he's absolutely the type of guy who would stuff his pockets with monopoly money before heading to a game.
This is obviously a blatant lie on LSU's part, but you have to respect it to a point, because it's just a giant middle finger to the NCAA. Everyone who watched that video knows exactly what's going on, but LSU knows the NCAA can't prove shit, so they're not going to play the compliance game.
