Now, let’s talk about how to score your tickets to witness the electrifying spectacle that is the Savannah Bananas. The Bananas ticket lottery is now open on their official website, but make sure to sign up before December 1 to secure your spot. It’s important to note that the lottery does not guarantee ticket availability, but fear not! A random drawing will take place two months prior to the event, and those selected will have the amazing opportunity to purchase their tickets. Prices start at just $35, so don’t miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime experience!
But wait, there’s more exciting news! Alongside the Bananas and the Party Animals, yet another team has been introduced: the Firefighters.

Now, let’s explore the wonders of “Banana Ball,” the captivating style of play that the Savannah Bananas have introduced. Picture baseball with a twist – nine rule changes that are guaranteed to keep you on the edge of your seat. Each inning won is rewarded with points, rather than traditional runs. The Bananas’ website explains that the team that wins the inning will receive the point. But that’s not all – additional rules include a ban on mound visits, restrictions on leaving the batter’s box between pitches, and no bunting. Perhaps the most tantalizing rule of all is when a batter hits a foul ball caught by a fan – the batter is immediately out! But remember, “Banana Ball” isn’t just about the game itself. Prepare for a wild ride filled with laughter and surprises, featuring dancing base coaches, lively umpires, and hitters wielding flaming bats.
So, get ready for the ride of a lifetime with the Savannah Bananas in 2024. Mark your calendars, secure your tickets, and let the exhilaration begin!
