LSU fans are at it again, and they're gunning for a College World Series win.
No, not on the field, although that'd be great for the Tigers, who last won a CWS title in 2023. We're talking about the annual Rocco's Pizza & Cantina Jell-O shot challenge, in which patrons buy as many shots of the wobbly liquor-filled stuff as they can in support of their favorite school.
At last count earlier this week, LSU was wiping the floor with every other school, downing over 10,000 Jell-O shots. And as of Monday night? They're up to 17,746 shots. It's a complete blow-out.
This brings us to an important question: can LSU break its own Jell-O shot record? Remember, LSU fans drank (ate?) 68,888 shots in 2023, which was a record.
The other question is: if LSU gets eliminated, will fans stop buying shots in honor of the Tigers?
At this pace, assuming LSU sticks around til the end, they could have a, er, shot. But we'll see.
Starting back in 2019, Rocco's tallied up the shots for each school they were purchased for. On top of that, there's a charity element for each of those $5 Jell-O shots: one dollar for every shot is given to food banks.
