The Savannah Bananas are known for putting on wild performances while wearing bright yellow uniforms. They’re not your average baseball team. While some baseball playing is involved in each game, the players wear kilts, break dance, and insert circus-like antics into every show. It’s essentially a rowdy round of baseball that offers plenty of laughs and entertainment to guests of all ages.
How did Savannah Bananas come about?
Savanah Bananas got its start in Savannah, Georgia, in 2015 after the city’s minor league team departed. The organization wanted to bring the fun back to baseball, however, the concept wasn’t an instant hit.
“By January of 2016, just months before our first game, the team had over-drafted our . Owners Jesse and Emily Cole were forced to sell their home to keep the team going,” Savannah Bananas said in a statement on its website. “Then everything changed on February 25, 2016, when we named the team the Savannah Bananas.”
The rebranding helped them earn massive attention nationally, and they were quickly showcased in Sports Illustrated, CBS, and NBC. They were even featured as SportsCenters’s Logo of the Year.
The rest is history.
Savannah Bananas is now embarking on a tour across the U.S. in 2025, visiting 40 cities across 25 states. They will stop at 18 major league baseball and three football stadiums.

Banana Ball
Savannah Bananas is known for playing “banana ball.” They’ve inserted several rules into the game that allow the fans to interact with the players during each performance. For instance, if a fan is lucky enough to catch a foul ball, it counts, and a player on the field is out.
During each performance, they break out into at least one choreographed dance to songs by popular singers like Taylor Swift, Morgan Wallen, and Mariah Carey.
