ROB: WELL, THERE ARE PLENTY OF TRADITIONS IN PLAY DURING THE COLLEGE WORLD SERIES AND ONE IS BENEFITTING A COUPLE FOOD BANKS IN THE SOUTH. JULIE: KETV NEWSWATCH 7’S ALEX MCLOON HAS THE STORY FROM BASEBALL VILLAGE TONIGHT. ♪ ALEX: JULIE, ROBI, THIS IS THE STORY OF THE SERIES, OLE MISS AND ARKANSAS, NOT ON THE FIELD, BUT ACROSS THE STREET AT AN OLD RESTAURANT CALLED ROCCO’S. [COMMOTION] MONEY CAN’T BUY EVERYTHING. BUT FOR THESE BASEBALL FANS, IT BUYS JELL-O SHOTS. PAT: NOTHING I’VE EVER DONE IN MY LIFE, YOU KNOW, WILL EVER BE AS POPULAR AS THIS THING IS NOW. ALEX: MANAGER PAT MCEVOY IS THE NAME AND FACE BEHIND THIS WHITE BOARD FOLLOWED AND VIEWED THOUSANDS OF TIMES ON TWITTER. PAT: WE GET SO BUSY DURING THE RUSHES AND WE GET SO MANY, SO MANY REQUESTS THAT WE JUST CAN’T. WE CAN’T, LIKE WE’LL JUST TAKE IT OFF THE HOOK SOMETIMES BECAUSE WE JUST CAN’T ANSWER THE PHONE. ALEX: OLE MISS AND ARKANSAS FANS SENT THE SCOREBOARD INTO THE THOUSANDS. BUT IT WASN’T ALWAYS THIS BUSY. PAT AND THE OWNER WERE THE ONLY EMPLOYEES AT ONE POINT IN THE PANDEMIC. AND ROCCO’S ALMOST CLOSED. HOW MUCH MONEY HAVE YOU GUYS MADE ON JELL-O SHOTS? ANY IDEA? >> AH, LOOKING AT THE BOARD, I CAN’T IMAGINE, 70,000? MAYBE, I DON’T KNOW, IT’S UP THERE. ALEX: IT’S SO FAR UP THERE, KEVIN CAME UP WITH THE IDEA TO SPREAD THE WEALTH. ROCCO’S IS DONATING TWO DOLLARS FOR EVERY JELL-O SHOT SOLD TO REBELS AND RAZORBACKS TO EACH SCHOOL’S FOOD PANTRIES. >> WE WOULD LIKE TO RENOVATE OUR PANTRY A LITTLE BIT, JUST LIKE IMPROVING THE OUTSIDE AND THE INSIDE. ALEX: VICTORIA SAVAGE IS THE VOLUNTEER COORDINATOR FOR ARKANSAS’S FOOD PANTRY, A PLACE USED BY STUDENTS, STAFF, OR ANYONE AFFILIATED WITH THE UNIVERSITY IN A BUILDING THAT CAN BE HARD TO FIND. >> FOOD INSECURITY IS STILL, IT’S STILL A STIGMATIZED SUBJECT. SO, IF PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO COME HERE TO RECEIVE HELP, WE WOULD LOVE TO MAKE IT AS COMFORTABLE AS POSSIBLE. ALEX: FANS CAME, WATCHED GAMES AND DRANK GELATIN TO EARN THE JELL-O SHOT CHALLENGE CHAMPIONSHIP. AND MAYBE WATCH THEIR TEAM WIN A COLLEGE WORLD SERIES TITLE WHILE THEY’RE HERE. SO, OLE MISS BEATS ARKANSAS IN TODAY’S GAME. THEY’LL PLAY FOR THE COLLEGE WORLD SERIES TITLE. THE LAST TEAM TO WIN ALSO WON ROCCO’S JELL-O SHOT CHALLENGE. COINCIDENCE, SUPERSTITION? I WILL SEND IT BACK TO YOU GUYS AND LET YOU DECIDE
