LSU Opens the 2025 Jell‑O Shot Challenge Like They’ve Been Training All Year

525 shots deep. Omaha never stood a chance.

Rocco’s Pizza & Cantina just rolled out the opening leaderboard for the 2025 College World Series Jell‑O Shot Challenge — and if you thought LSU fans were going to ease into it, you clearly don’t know how Tiger Nation gets down.

525 shots.Before most teams have even unpacked.

LSU Didn’t Come to Omaha for the Weather

Let’s be honest — the Tigers aren’t just here for the trophy. They’re here for legacy, liquor, and liquid dessert with a bite.

And after last year’s record-shattering run of 68,888 shots, it looks like the LSU faithful are already gunning for their own title defense. Early numbers show a massive lead over everyone else:

Team	Jell‑O Shots
LSU	525
Murray State	385
Louisville	298
Coastal Carolina	277
Arkansas	235
Oregon State	69
Arizona	55
UCLA	39

Other Teams: Respectable. LSU: Ridiculous.

Coastal, Louisville, and Murray State came to play — and we respect it. Arkansas is pacing themselves like it’s a 9-inning game. UCLA and Arizona? Might still be looking for the bar. And Oregon State? 69 — we’ll say nothing, but we see you.

But let’s be clear: LSU didn’t come to Rocco’s to mingle.

They came to put up numbers.

Why It Matters (Kind Of)

Every $5 shot fuels the leaderboard, yes — but also local and regional charities. LSU’s legendary run in 2023 didn’t just make headlines, it raised over $100,000 for good causes.

So every time a Tiger raises a cup, it’s not just for the fun — it’s for the flex, the foundation, and the flavor.

The Pelican Pick Says...

It’s early, sure. But when LSU fans start the week with a five-hundo lead, you’ve got two choices:

1. Catch up.

2. Or get comfortable being second.

   
   

Either way, we’re here for every shot, every chant, and every purple-and-gold-stained cup on the floor.

The King’s back. The bar’s stocked. And the Tigers are gellin’.
