Baseball that's gone bananas

There's no crying in baseball, but there are a lot of laughs, when the Savannah Bananas bring their circus antics to the ballpark. The Georgia-based Coastal Plain League team has attracted millions of fans with their TikTok videos, which show batters on stilts or players in kilts. Correspondent Kris Van Cleave checks out the playful play-by-play.

It’s really been a rough couple of years, this man is a business genius and a hero for bringing people together to have fun and smile.

As a baseball purist, I love this. Why not have something different?

[georgeriley]

The most interesting thing was seeing the fans run to the ballpark.
When you got them doing that, you're doing something right.

I’m a “baseball purist”. Love the game and its history. If this guys was trying to change baseball into this, I’d have a problem with that but no reason we can’t have both. I’d love to go to one of these games!

I drove over 4 hours today from Ocala FL down to Port St Lucie to see the Mets. Spent: $110 for 2 tickets, $70 gas and tolls, $15 parking $7 for 1 ice cream, $15 water and soda. It was ok but not worth it. Someone next to me told me about the Bananas. Seeing this, Im going! 🎉😂

There's room to love both traditional baseball and Bananaball ♥️

Now that is a baseball team that I can afford to take my kids to see! Keep on rocking it Bananas!

Nice to see people happy and enjoying themselves again

20 bucks for a ticket and all you can eat? That's cheaper than a beer at my home park lol

This is like semi-pro in real life . Nice to see people happy and enjoying themselves again.

Love the Savannah Party Animals, Bananas and Firefighters.

Great idea! The Savannah Bananas are the Harlem Globetrotters of baseball.

[MrMalchore]

I saw the Harlem Globetrotters as a kid, the early 80s. The original Curly and Meadowlark. That was a fun night with the family.

I don't know how I haven't heard of this wonderful team and that wacky owner! I def will be looking them up. Such a brilliantly insane concept. This is just what America's favorite pastime needs. Wow! ⚾🇺🇸

I went to a Twins vs Yankees game at Target Field last week. It was a 9 inning game that lasted 3:50. We left after seven innings, which took 3 hours to get to.

A two hour game would be great. Forget about extra innings. Soccer matches take less than two hours.

$20 for a ticket and all you can eat! I guess good times still exist

[kimarajamison]

They need to have games around the country. I'd be into it.

[_NittiFire]

Second baseman and backup dancer, imagine that on your resume lol 😂

[JR-pyio]

I like the fact they are all about the fans. What a concept.

It's Peanut Butter-Jelly Time, in can do it with a baseball bat, literally!
