The exhibition baseball team that plays “Banana Ball” to sold-out crowds across the United States comes to Norfolk August 16, 17 and 18 against the Savannah Party Animals. Bananas games always sell out many months in advance and the team has a multi-year waitlist, but tickets are sometimes available on the resale market.
According to the official Bananas website:
“Our players perform choreographed dances every game – Taylor Swift, Morgan Wallen, Mariah Carey – You name it, they’ve danced to it.
Every game we have a 3-2-2, which stands for 3rd inning, second batter, second pitch.
These are unique in-game pre-pitch dances that have combined together for over 300 million views on TikTok.
We are the only baseball team to play in kilts. That’s right, kilts.
Our players perform in over-the-top music videos like Old Town Road, Can’t Stop the Peeling, and I Don’t Dance.
Our hitters walk-ups are legendary. Bananas may be escorted to the plate by the Banana Pep Band, walk down the yellow carpet wearing the finest Dolce and Banana, or they may even introduce themselves.
We are known for our epic scoring celebrations. From running through the crowd to performing fully choreographed country line dances. When we score, you never know what will happen next.
We have the World’s Tallest Hitter and Pitcher with Dakota “Stilts” Albritton who stands 10 feet tall.”
