Savannah Bananas: Banana Ball Mania Takes Over Baltimore!
Baltimore is going absolutely 'Bananas' for baseball! The Savannah Bananas are bringing their unique brand of entertainment to Charm City as part of their 2025 Banana Ball World Tour. The high-energy, stunt-performing baseball team has captivated audiences nationwide with their innovative approach to the sport.
What makes Banana Ball so special? It's more than just a game; it's a spectacle. The Savannah Bananas prioritize fan interaction, ensuring everyone has a memorable experience. From choreographed dance moves to players engaging with the crowd, the energy is infectious.
Maceo Harrison, a Baltimore native and choreographer for the Bananas, expressed his excitement about returning to his roots. The team faces off against one of their rivals, the Firefighters, showcasing the league's diverse team personalities. The Bananas are known for their goofy, party-animal vibe, creating a brotherhood that extends beyond the baseball diamond.
"I love the fan interaction," says one of the players. Players dedicate time to ensure fans get the full Banana Ball experience, including meeting the famous 'Stilts Guy,' Dakota.
The Savannah Bananas' success is a testament to their unique appeal. Owner Jesse Cole recalls humble beginnings, with only a handful of tickets sold. Now, they boast a waitlist of over 3.5 million and sell out venues ranging from NFL stadiums to Major League ballparks.
Cole emphasizes that Banana Ball is evolving into a legitimate sport. "We’re going to have six teams going into next year. We’re going to have a league, so it’s not just one team putting on the same show every night. It’s a completely new league and more than anything, we’re creating a sport, not just a show."
Baltimore is just one stop on the Savannah Bananas' journey to revolutionize baseball and create a new kind of sporting entertainment.
