LSU brought out the heavy hitters for the College World Series.
No, not the on-the-field competition in Omaha. The Tigers have that covered.
Major Leaguer Paul Skenes and Livvy Dunne - both LSU icons - rolled into Rocco’s Monday to take part in the Jello Shot Challenge.
For the uninitiated, every year, the local establishment sells $5 Jello shots and keeps a leaderboard on which fan base at the CWS can distance itself from the rest of the pack.
As you can see, the Tigers fans don’t need much help, but Skenes and Dunne are welcomed additions to the party.
Dunne was the talk of the town on Saturday when LSU took on Arkansas.
The 22-year-old former gymnast showed up wearing a Skenes jersey that was half LSU (on the front) and half Pittsburgh Pirates (on the back).
Dunne said she had to come back to Omaha to support her Tigers, who won the national championship there in 2023.
For Monday’s game, Dunne rocked a combo of a crop-top and a swimsuit model creating what she hopes is another winning look for the Tigers.
In the spring, Dunne revealed her latest pictures from her “Sports Illustrated Swimsuit” shoot.
The former LSU gymnast will be be featured in the magazine issue for the third straight year, sporting two sets of animal print bikinis worn throughout the outdoors of Bermuda.
Dunne also sports a backward baseball cap.
