Lost enamel pins near Girard Park, Lafayette
Louis LeBlanc here. I lost a small bundle of pins after a photo walk through Girard Park in Lafayette, Louisiana, around 1:15 PM on Saturday. The pins are enamel, colorful, and hold sentimental value from different trips. I retraced the park’s paths near the big oak tree and along the pond, but they’re gone. I’d really like them back, as they’re part of my everyday outfits. If you found them near the Girard Park entrance or the picnic area, please keep them safe for me.
Lost photographs in Lafayette, Louisiana
I lost my photographs after a family dinner in the Cajundome parking lot around 7:30 p.m. on Friday. They are a small stack: a black-and-white portrait of my grandmother from the 1950s, plus a few color prints from a road trip to New Orleans last year. I had left them on a bench near the main entrance on Johnston Street after the show, and I must have walked away too soon. These pictures mean the world to me; they are the only keepsakes I have left of some people I have lost, and I am hoping they will turn up.
Lost: Sheet Music in Lafayette
I lost my sheet music yesterday around 4:20 p.m. while I was at Lafayette’s Acadiana Center for the Arts, flipping through a blue three-ring binder near the stage doors. The wind picked up and it slipped from my bag. My heart dropped because those pages mean a lot to the piece I’ve been working on for weeks. It would mean the world to have them back, and I’m hoping someone found it and recognizes it as mine.
Found envelope with name and number
Friday the 29th, in Albertsons parking lot, I found an envelope that had some things in it. It had a name on one side, and a number on the other side of it. Looking to return it to the owner.

Gray Nike running shoes, size 9
Found a pair of gray Nike running shoes, size 9, this afternoon around 3:15pm behind the old train depot in the Lafayette Market District on Main Street. They’re a bit scuffed but solid, with a worn feel in the sole. The left shoe has a neon green lace tucked inside, and there’s a tiny coffee stain on the tongue. I’d love to get them back to the owner, especially if you’ve been jogging along the river trail today. If you recognize them, drop a note here and we can arrange a pickup near Main and 2nd.
Navy blue US passport with gold lettering
I lost my navy blue US passport yesterday around 3pm near the Mall of Acadiana on Johnston Street in Lafayette. It's in a standard navy cover with gold lettering; the corners are a bit frayed and there's a small coffee stain on the back. Inside, a tiny receipt from a coffee shop is tucked in the pocket. This passport is important for an upcoming trip and holds sentimental value—it's tied to a family vacation last year. I’d really appreciate getting it back.
Cream knit scarf with navy stripe
I found this cream knit scarf this morning around 9:15 near the Lafayette Public Library on Main Street. It's a Lands' End scarf, about 60 inches long, with a navy stripe along the edge and a small snag in the fringe. The scarf looks gently used, soft and warm, with a tiny stitched initials tag reading 'L.E.' near the corner that could help identify the owner. If this sounds like yours, send me a quick note and we can arrange a pickup near the library.
Blue Ticketmaster concert ticket stub
I lost my blue Ticketmaster concert ticket stub from yesterday afternoon here in Lafayette. It was for the 7:30 PM show at the Cajundome, in section 102, row B, seat 12, printed on white paper with a bold blue border and the Ticketmaster logo in the corner. There's a small coffee stain along the bottom edge and a crease from where it was folded in my wallet. The ticket has sentimental value—it was a gift from a friend who moved away, and I really need to recover it. I probably dropped it near the Cajundome main entrance around 3pm yesterday, by the security line outside the gate. If anyone found it, please reach out; I'd be forever grateful.
Blue hand-painted ceramic vase with gold rim
I lost my blue hand-painted ceramic vase yesterday around 3pm near the Lafayette Public Library on Main Street. It's about 8 inches tall with a glossy cobalt glaze and a delicate gold rim. There's a tiny star-shaped sticker on the bottom and a faint crack along the lip from a recent spill. The vase was a gift from my grandmother and means a lot to me, so I really need to get it back. If you found it, please drop me an email at [email protected].
Vintage coin collection in red pouch
I found a vintage coin collection this afternoon around 4:15pm behind the Lafayette Antique Market on West Pinhook Road. It’s tucked in a small red leather pouch about 6x4 inches, with a brass zipper that’s a bit tarnished. Inside are roughly 40 coins from the 1800s to early 1900s—mostly silver-toned, some with green patina, and a couple that gleam. One coin is a Barber dime with a tiny scratch near the date, and there’s a faded hand-written note in the pouch that says 'To Dad'. A small brass ship charm hangs from the zipper pull, which is a unique identifying feature. I’d really like to get this back to its owner; if you recognize it, tell me about the note on the pouch and the coins’ dates.
Hand-painted ceramic wall plaque with floral design
I found a hand-painted ceramic wall plaque this afternoon around 3:45pm outside the Lafayette Art Center on Lafayette Street near the Main Street intersection. It's about 8 inches square with a cream glaze and a blue-and-gold peony pattern, and there's a tiny chip on the bottom edge. The back bears a maker's mark, 'A.L. 17', and a jute hanger loop is still attached. It feels like something that belongs in a cozy living room more than a curb, so I kept an eye out for the owner since it's got a bit of sentimental charm. If this looks familiar, email me at [email protected] and I'll organize a pickup.
Silver-tone Seiko watch with blue dial
I found a silver-tone Seiko watch this afternoon around 2:15pm near the corner of Main Street and 4th in downtown Lafayette, by the farmers market setup. It has a blue sunburst dial with white hour markers and a black leather strap with subtle red stitching along the edges. The case shows a few light scratches and there’s a tiny engraving on the back that reads 'M.H. 08/23'. I picked it up because it stood out among the sidewalk clutter, and I can imagine how someone might be really missing it. If this watch belongs to you, drop a note in the app and we can arrange a safe pickup.
Black AirPods Pro with blue case
Hey, I lost my black AirPods Pro with a blue silicone case yesterday around 5pm near the UL Lafayette campus on Johnston Street, behind the Student Union. The case has a small dent on the bottom edge and a pineapple sticker on the back. They were a birthday gift from my sister, so they mean a lot to me and I really need them back. If someone found them, dropping them at the campus security desk or the Lafayette Lost and Found would help me a ton.
Tan tote bag found near Lafayette Library
I found a tan tote bag this afternoon around 4:15pm in the Lafayette Library parking lot behind the Main Street entrance. It's a medium-sized canvas tote with brown leather-like trim, a clear blue inside pocket, and a small pink tag that says 'Mercer & May'. There are a few everyday items inside—a spiral notebook, a reusable coffee sleeve, and a lipstick with a dented cap—so it looks recently used. If this bag is yours, reply here with a detail only you’d know—like the pink Mercer & May tag, the blue inner pocket, or the lipstick cap—so we can verify and arrange pickup.
