The Savannah Bananas are making baseball fresh and entertaining, packing out Bank of America Stadium with their Banana Ball World Tour stop in Charlotte. Their approach mixes the sport with fun, enforcing a two-hour time limit, integrating choreographed dances, trick plays, and even fan-caught foul outs.

On Friday night, the Savannah Bananas played the first of two sell-out games from Bank of America Stadium—the home of the Carolina Panthers. And before the first pitch was thrown, team creator and owner Jesse Cole addressed the 74,000 fans in attendance.

The Savannah Bananas played “Banana Ball” baseball for a sellout crowd of 74,000 at Charlotte’s Bank of America Stadium on Friday. They play again Saturday.
