Ole Miss fans will be trying to break their own record when the Rebels get to Omaha later this week.
That record?
It is for the most Jello shots ever consumed during a College World Series at the world-famous Rocco’s Pizza and Cantina just feet from home plate at Charles Schwab Field Omaha.
In 2022, Rebel fans were credited for consuming 18,777 Jello shots, as Ole Miss won the national championship.
WHAT IS A JELLO SHOT?
A Jello shot at Rocco’s (Rocco’s Pizza & Cantina in Omaha) is a classic, booze-infused gelatin shot that’s become a massive College World Series tradition.
Quick Breakdown:
- Price: $5 each (during CWS).
- What it is: A small plastic cup of flavored Jell-O mixed with alcohol (typically vodka or similar spirits for a good kick). They’re pre-made in vibrant team-specific colors and flavors to match the 8 schools in the tournament.
- The Challenge: When you buy one, it gets tallied on a big leaderboard for your team. The fan base that buys the most “wins” the annual Jello Shot Challenge. It’s a fun (and chaotic) way for fans to show support.
