LSU won more than just the College World Series on Sunday in Omaha.
Rocco’s is recognizing LSU as the first 2-time champion of its Jello Shot Challenge. Tigers fans purchased 52,390 Jello shots at $5 each. No other fanbase cracked 5 digits. Coastal Carolina finished in second with 9,117, just ahead of Arkansas at 9,075.

Every shot matters, every fan matters, every new friend we've made matters. Y'all are built for glory, for greatness, for Jelleaux and we love you! pic.twitter.com/VwcKXf6c2c

The 2025 Jello Shot Challenge went about as fans expected. LSU jumped out to an early lead and never looked back.

This is LSU’s second-best mark since the challenge was introduced. Tigers fans were responsible for 68,888 shots in 2023 when LSU went 6-2 in the College World Series. They fell well below that mark in 2025, but that can be attributed to playing 3 fewer CWS games. The 2025 squad never faced elimination in Omaha, going 5-0 in Omaha.
We’ll see if LSU can go back-to-back on the diamond and in the cantina.
