The Bananas play “Banana Ball, which the team calls the “fastest and most entertaining game of baseball.”

Banana ball includes players performing choreographed dances during games, wearing kilts, extravagant walk-up introductions, and more.

The Bananas called Grayson Stadium in Savannah, Georgia home. Grayson Stadium is also known as Bananaland.

Banana games feature “all-you-can-eat hotdogs, hamburgers, chicken sandwiches, water, soda, popcorn, and cookies.”

The Bananas decided to leave the league to play “Banana Ball” all year long.
