LSU’s final record-obliterating tally at the Rocco’s CWS Jell-O Shot Challenge

Worldwide Jell-O shortages are being reported in the wake of LSU fans’ dominant showing in Omaha.

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.

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.

Recapping Day 6 of the College World Series

Half of the national championship series is now set.

Half of the College World Series final is now set.

The Florida Gators beat TCU to become the first team to advance to the national championship series. TCU tied the game in the eighth inning, but the Gators re-took the lead in the top of the ninth to win 3-2.

LSU rode a three-run homer from [autotag]Cade Beloso[/autotag], and a great outing from [autotag]Griffin Herring[/autotag] to beat the Wake Forest Demon Deacons 5-2 and force a winner-take-all game Thursday night at 6 p.m. CT.

The winner gets to play Florida for a national title.

As for the Jell-O shot challenge, the only question left is, will the LSU faithful break 30,000 by the time the tournament ends? Here’s the rundown on that and more after Day 6 in Omaha.
