Guy , 56, began his post with a snap of himself, Ryder, 18, and Lori , 53, posing together inside the dorm.
The family was all smiles, though the Guy’s Grocery Games star confessed in his caption that he was struggling.
He also shared a video of himself and Ryder from outside the dorm building, saying, “It’s move-in day. … Welcome to San Diego State.”
Ryder could be heard groaning just out of frame, mumbling, “We’re not doing this.”
Another video showed Lori and Ryder walking through the building’s halls, lugging some of his stuff.
Guy laughed as he said, “It’s so huge. What do you think? Is it bigger than you thought or is it smaller?”
The TV personality also shared a sped-up video of the trio working to put the room together and a snap showing the door with nametags on it.
One had Guy’s son Ryder’s name on it, while the other read Hunter, his roommate.
Guy also has a 28-year-old son named Hunter.
“It was a wild weekend moving @_ryderfieri into the dorms at @sandiegostateuniversity!! It hasn’t fully hit us yyet but not seeing him everyday is gonna be hard. He’s got a cool roommate (named Hunter, omg) SDSU is really great and supportive to their students and he’s fired up,” he shared in the caption.
“So proud of you Ryder. Good luck!!”

GUY’S NEW LOOK

He was spotted at the Olympics in Paris, France, supporting the United States Women’s Water Polo team with Flavor Flav.
Squad member Kaleigh Gilchrist, 32, posted a pic of Guy and Flavor Flav, who helped sponsor the team, looking on from the stands.
She captioned the snap, posted to her Instagram Story, “Flavor Town x Flavor Flav.”
Guy showed off his slimmed-down figure in a tight black T-shirt while rocking his signature bleached, spiked hair and sparkly jewelry around his neck.
He had an arm around Flavor Flav, born William Jonathan Drayton Jr., who wore U.S. national team colors during the event.
Flavor Flav, 65, also had on his signature massive clock necklace, stylish sunglasses, and a U.S.A flat-brim hat.
On Her Turf, an Instagram account, shared a highlight from the game on their Instagram feed.
“The U.S. women’s water polo is up vs. France and Flavor Flav and Guy Fieri are LOVING IT!,” the caption revealed.
Flavor Flav jumped around and danced in the crowd as Guy clapped nearby.
“I love that Flavor Flav sponsors the women’s water polo team,” one commenter posted.
“The mascot that we didn’t ask for but that we didn’t know we needed,” posted a second.
“That man is in his 60s and has more energy than anyone in the stands!” a third chimed in.
