This event will be marked as one of Franklin Field’s biggest events of the year as it is going to bring in a big crowd to the Complex this weekend.
What are the Savannah Bananas?
According to the Savannah Bananas website, their goal is to challenge the way things are supposed to be, They play the fastest and most entertaining game of Baseball called “banana ball” They are also known to perform dances throughout the ball game as well when fans come and watch and perform various skills as well. I like to relate the Savannah Bananas to the Harlem Globetrotters of Basketball you are coming out to see a different and funny kind of game. They are known to be different and that is what makes them unique currently.
What is the Savannah Bananas considered?
Currently, the Savannah Bananas are considered an exhibit on baseball teams meaning they play lots of things for fun to put on a great atmosphere for kids and families at local stadiums around the United States. They are based in Savannah, Georgia currently which goes with the name of the team but like I said before they play around the country.
