The viral baseball team is hitting the road next year and bringing their unique flair to stadiums across the country.
SAVANNAH, Ga. — Banana Ball is getting bigger — and traveling to more of the U.S. than ever before.
The Banana Ball Championship League, home of the viral Savannah Bananas baseball team, is adding two more teams and announced an expansive 2026 schedule that will take them across the country. The team is known for its unique spin on baseball, adding dance routines, acrobatics and fan participation to the games.
The four-team league is currently made up of the Party Animals, Texas Tailgaters and the Firefighters. Two new teams, the Loco Beach Coconuts and the Indianapolis Clowns, will join in 2026. The Indianapolis Clowns are named after a Negro League team, a league of all-Black baseball players in the 1920s, which were known as the Harlem Globetrotters of baseball and served as inspiration for the 1976 movie “The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars and Motor Kings.”
The Bananas began as an exhibition team and have exploded in popularity. Roughly 5,000 fans packed Historic Grayson Stadium in Savannah, Georgia, for the 2026 schedule announcement Thursday.
