Getting tickets to Savannah Bananas games over the last few years has been so difficult that the barnstorming baseball team has drawn comparisons to Taylor Swift. And like Ms. Swift, the Bananasbetjili, who have danced their way to national stardom, will be taking their act from intimate venues to almost exclusively giant stadiums in 2025.
If you missed seeing the team in Hartford or Des Moines or any other minor league baseball city over the last few years, you will be able to catch them in 2025 at Yankee Stadium, Fenway Park and even a few N.F.L. stadiums that can accommodate upward of 70,000 fans a game.
The changes, which were announced Thursday during a charmingly lo-fi “draft” of the Bananas’ 2025 schedule that streamed on YouTube, will open the team to thousands of new fans, many of whom had been shut out of the team’s ticket sales in the last few years. But it has also led to some fretting among longtime supporters who are used to seeing the team in stadiums half as large.
“My first and biggest concern is that they will lose the fan interaction,” said Cory Mickelson, 48, a fan from Hershey, Pa., and a member of the K Club, an exclusive fan group run by the team. “It’s a lot easier to interact with 9,000 people versus 40,000-plus in a massive stadium with multiple decks. The experience will not be the same.”
But, he added, “I have no doubt the Bananas will figure out a way to make the experience just as good as the smaller stadiums.”
