In her latest series of stories on Snapchat, Olivia shared snippets of the Dunne sisters’ signature elaborate celebrations for the Carnival. Captioned “celebrating Mardi Gras the right way“, Olivia and Julz were spotted getting ready to devour a platter of seafood. The two were seen at the Fiery Crab restaurant which is famous for its extravagant sseafood platters that can often challenge the customers with their impressive portion sizes.

Julz and Olivia were seen sporting crab-printed bibs around their necks as they summed up the courage to take on their food with determination. In another image from the series of stories, Dunne also shared what the platter looks like and it seems to be what dreams are made of for seafood connoisseurs. Olivia shared another selfie of herself at the restaurant showing her candid mood as her recent form continues to fuel LSU’s NCAA dreams this year.

While Olivia looked pretty casual in Baton Rouge, Julz looked more stern compared to her otherwise jubilant self. It was possibly the prospect of having to overcome the mighty seafood plate in front of her that felt like a daunting task for the LSU’s athlete’s sister. Considering how good last week was for Olivia, she’s probably allowed more fun time than the rest, anyway.
