The 2023 college baseball season came to an end on Monday night, and sadly, that means so does this year’s College World Series Jell-O Shot Challenge at Rocco’s Pizza in Omaha.
In addition to capturing a title on the diamond, LSU blew away the competition in the Jell-O Shot Challenge. Fans from the bayou shattered the record set by Ole Miss fans last spring days ago, but the Tiger faithful continued to bump the number up, apparently with the intent of setting an unbreakable record.
If that were the case, I feel pretty comfortable saying “Mission Accomplished.”
The previous record was just shy of 19,000. LSU’s final total after 10 days in Omaha? 68,888.
Heroes get remembered but legends never die. This year will be talked about for ages. Thanks to the @LSUbaseball faithful and all the fans that made it fun. Thanks to @getjevo for making an absolutely absurd amount of delicious shots. Thank y'all for following along. pic.twitter.com/SmhKubGp7l

While the Jell-O Shot Challenge is always secondary to the baseball being played at Charles Schwab Stadium, it’s nice to come away with a clean sweep in the festivities in Omaha.
LSU managed to do just that after capturing national title No. 7 — and a Jell-O shot crown, to boot.
