    <description>&lt;P&gt;After several years of trying, I won the lottery to purchase tickets this year! My husband and I will be flying across the country to see them, taking an extra day to check out Savannah. I bought four tickets and two friends from Texas will be joining us. I'm really looking forward to it.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;BTW - their half time shows are something else - the other night they were sponsoring a foster parent charity and some of the fans and team wives had a baby crawling race - so exciting - at the very end one of the baby’s just took off and won.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;div class="video-embed-center video-embed"&gt;&lt;iframe class="embedly-embed" src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2F1sX74-azNLE%3Ffeature%3Doembed&amp;amp;display_name=YouTube&amp;amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fshorts%2F1sX74-azNLE&amp;amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2F1sX74-azNLE%2Fhq2.jpg&amp;amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;amp;schema=youtube" width="400" height="300" scrolling="no" title="Is This the Greatest Comeback in Sports History? #bananaball #savannahbananas #babyrace #baby #funny" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; fullscreen; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture;" allowfullscreen="true"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Our son and his family drove over 300 miles (one way) one week end to see them. Said it cost a pretty penny but was well worth it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Came on the news that they were coming here next year. Have to enter a lottery drawing to be able to buy tickets. I though "well why not try" until I saw the price of ticket. You all have fun.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Problem is they are so popular that the third party ticket sellers are buying them all up - I think that is why the prices rise - they are only $ 35 if done on their main website via the lottery. &amp;nbsp;But so many people have no problem paying for the higher price tickets - especially when they are even having to fly or drive long distances to just get to the event. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Like you said about your son and his family - even after driving 300 miles - well worth it . &amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Just don’t buy from a scammer!!!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="https://thesavannahbananas.com/tickets/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Savannah Bananas - Tickets&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Our tickets start at&amp;nbsp;$35&amp;nbsp;when purchased directly from our official site. If you see tickets priced significantly higher, they may have been originally bought from us and are now being resold on third-party platforms, or they could be completely fake listings.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Common third-party sites include&amp;nbsp;StubHub, Vivid Seats, and Ticketmaster, among others.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Warning:&amp;nbsp;Tickets purchased through third-party sites are often fraudulent and will not be accepted at the event.&amp;nbsp;Additionally, an overwhelming majority of ticket offers on social media platform are scams. Please use extreme caution if you choose to pursue tickets from these sources.&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Saw them on the new a while back&lt;SPAN&gt;. &amp;nbsp;Following their social media as well. Seems like a lot of fun for every age to watch!&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;MORE info - adding more teams -&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The opponents of the Savannah Bananas in "Banana Ball" include the Party Animals (debuted in 2021)&lt;SPAN&gt;, Firefighters (debuted in 2024), Texas Tailgaters (debuted in 2025), Indianapolis Clowns (set to debut in 2026), and the Loco Beach Coconuts (set to debut in 2026).&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Saw the Party Animals the other nite on TV at Grayson Stadium - dress in all pink. &amp;nbsp;wow - what a team.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Also found this which gives more details on the experience of banana ball -&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;&lt;A href="https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/46519615/savannah-bananas-101-teams-rules-baseball-facts" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;ESPN.com - 10/10/2025 - Savannah Bananas 101: Teams, rules, and more baseball facts&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Looks like this new sport’s entertainment ( which is it more? &amp;nbsp;A sport or an entertainment?) is growing by leaps and bounds.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Take a look at the rules - yea, guess this does make it a sport. &amp;nbsp;My favorite is:&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Fans can make outs: If a spectator in the stands catches a foul ball, it is an out.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Guess this is a way that you can actually “make one” for the home team.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
