Pat McAfee Blasts Rocco's After 1 Rude College World Series Visit

Summary
Pat McAfee used his ESPN and YouTube show Friday to accuse Omaha bar Rocco's of treating him and his crew dismissively during a College World Series stop earlier this week.
McAfee said Rocco's general manager was upset they had not called ahead, joked that his check would bounce, and then sent the group to a separate room to unload boxes of premade Jell-O shots.
The clash matters because Rocco's Jell-O Shot Challenge has become a signature 12-day College World Series attraction since 2019, with each shot splitting proceeds among two food pantries and the bar.
West Virginia's first-ever Omaha appearance added to the spotlight: McAfee, one of the school's highest-profile alumni, said he still made a large contribution, and the event's tracker later thanked him for the biggest tip in Rocco's history.
