BACKFLIPS IN BASEBALL?! The Savannah Bananas are CRAZY FUN and will blow your mind!

- Ready to see a dancing umpire, a pitcher wearing stilts, a cheerleading squad of grandmothers, a crawling competition for babies, a dog that retrieves baseball bats, topless players with six-pack abs, behind-the-back catches, a pre-game parade with a brass band, and so much more?! Boston Red Sox legend and World Series champion Jonathan Papelbon was there at Grayson Stadium, and he was wearing a kilt!
The Savannah Bananas have officially blown my mind. I've attended nearly 2,000 baseball games, and I've never experienced anything like this. Even the rules are wacky. If a fan catches a foul ball, it counts as an OUT! Batters can't bunt or step out of the box, but they CAN steal 1st base. There's a two-hour time limit for the game, and so on. This was like watching baseball on another planet, and here's a bold claim: even if someone thinks baseball is lame, they will love this video and the Savannah Bananas.
Check out their website and make sure to find them on social media too:

This video was filmed on September 2, 2022 by "Fenway Chris" (@yonnernyc on Instagram) and it was edited by Rachel Messbauer. Huge thanks to Bananas owner Jesse Cole (@yellowtuxjesse) for inviting me and a big thanks to YOU for watching!

They fully embrace the two meanings of "Go Bananas" 🤣
Haha, yes! Great marketing and great slogan.
@@zackhampleThanks so much for signing my baseball at a Padres game😃
Yeah lol😂
Go lake Elsinore storms
Lol
Love The Savnnah Bananas! I heard about them two yrs ago because of Jomboy visiting.
It's like a great big family. I love how both teams interact with each other. What a great environment for the family to come and enjoy a game without the stresses of any kind of pennant race.
Yup! Incredible environment.
The bananas are one of the most wildest and craziest team I have ever seen and I absolutely love it. Thanks for sharing Zack.
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it.
I don't usually say blessed but we are very fortunate to have one of the greatest shows on Earth and that is not an understatement the bananas are just that I would hope that you can go to one in person because for that small stadium that place is rocking
Zack, you made Blake and Heath's day by talking with them after they tossed you a ball. I am glad you had a great time in Bananaland. Wish you all the best my man.
I’ve been in baseball for 42 years, never seen anything like this before!!! 😂
Really like the idea of that “batter can steal first rule”, would be interesting to see that in the MLB
wow home of games watchs zack
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢y 6
A great addition to baseball! How many kids will introduce them to a great sport.
If MLB take just one thing from what the Bananas have done, the sport will be better for it.
Not sure how long the Bananas will last, but they deserve to prosper.
So many people having fun!
I’ll tell you exactly how it will go. Harlem globetrotters
OUTSTANDING! I should send in my resume...🤗 Hats off to the Bananas for keeping it fun! 🍌🥳 Z showing off the behind-the-back! Great work boys!
I found this very apealing, No one split early, I can peel the energy in that place! Everyone saying yellow to each other. Seems like such a fun place!
Huh huh huh you said a peeling
Savannah bananas!!! I’ve seen them do so much weird stuff… one of the oddest baseball teams
Very cool! I had seen a video on the Bananas and found them interesting! Very cool you got to go and see them in person as I have heard they have bought something special to Savannah and it is indeed fun to watch and see all the craziness! I love stuff like that brings out passion and love of baseball- and this does that! I look forward to seeing your next video and whatever other craziness is there! Thanks for making my day with this video and all! Really enjoying your 2022 season so far!
I saw the banana land documentary on ESPN plus. They are awesome and I love Jesse and Emily they deserve all the attention and praise for making the game fun like any sport should be.
I agree. They're pioneers!
I put seeing this team on my list of things to see!!!
Glad to hear that!
I suggest anyone watch the videos the owner gives on how her treats his staff/employees, excellent mindset. The story of getting it going, ups and downs is awesome.
Zach, you’re coverage of the Bananas is great! You can tell that you and Fenway Chris had a blast! Keep up the great content!
nice back hand catch at the 4:47 mark of the video by zack hample who is truly "THE JOE DIMAGGIO OF BALL HAWKERS"!!!!!!
I've seen them up at the Luther Williams Field against the Macon Bacon, they are a hoot!!! Just like how you described them: Harlem Globetrotters of baseball
That's cool that you've seen them.
Love it! It's like the baseball version of the movie Semi Pro lol!!
Love this video and see the Savannah Bananas. I have had the privilege of interview the owner Jesse Cole (ruclips.net/video/T-ciSXGoAew/видео.html) love learn more about the Savannah Bananas. Keep up the good work Zack Hample.
That's so cool very entertaining! I wish they would play closer to NY where i'm from! I never heard of these but now I have all thanks to you Zack!
This video was BANANAS!!!! Awesome stuff, Zack.
:D
Now this a baseball game I would love to watch 24/7
Banana Ball is the future of Baseball!!!!! I can honestly see some rules of Banana Ball being used in Baseball in the future.
😂 love the ending, This rain is bananas 😂
That looks so much fun, I need to make my way there one day. Thanks for sharing this Zack, looks like a blast.
If Robert Andino plays Bananaball vs Papelbon, that would be a rematch worth watching on ESPN.
Looks like a fun time for all... Thanks for the videos....
Thanks for watching.
I’d never heard of this team. Thanks for introducing me to them!
Wow this video was Bananas. Have heard so much about these guys. glad you were able to make it down and make a video. Love to see Paplebon getting in there and being apart of the silliness
Haha, it sure was.
I remember going to Sand Gnats games as a kid (A affiliate of the Mets at the time) and being one of 10 fans there. To see what the bananas have brought to Savannah and back to Grayson Stadium feels good
I may have been number 11 I would drive up occasionally from Jesup and sitting in an nearly empty Stadium have more people at our high school games bananas changed all that...bananas games are packed.
I've been anxiously waiting for this video. I'm so glad you had fun at the game. I can't wait to go myself one day.
Zack Hample amazing video.! Are the Savanna Bananas a triple A team of any MLB team?
Nope, no affiliation with any big league teams 😀
No
Lots of fun in this video!
Looking forward to seeing the next one.
I'm hoping to catch the Savannah Bananas next year...they look awesome...Great video Mr.Hample!!
Thanks and you totally should.
Savannah has a different vibe period but the Bannanas take the Savannah vibe to 20
They do indeed.
In a way I'm very surprised that Savannah took to this because it can be such a stuffy City
I’ve always wanted to go and see the bananas for a while. Have fun my guy.
Do it! And thanks.
the collab we've wanted!
30:14 Fenway Chris at it again! 😂
Hello Zack! That looks like a lot of fun! Keep it up!
Hello and thanks. :)
This looks like a lot of fun. I will have to check it out sometime. Maybe they will face the new Britain bees. I will enjoy every second of that game. Cool stuff.
Definitely check it out!
What a cool fun loving vibe !! 🍌🕊
Zach’s going to be at every Yankees game for the rest of the season trying to get that Judge ball.
This is truly fun and good for baseball. Can't wait to catch a Bananas game!
It's not good for baseball, it's unstructured and a mess.
@@Jo3W3st If it was meant to be taken seriously I would agree with you. It's not, so I don't.
Glad to see some fun in baseball. They are doing it right in Savanna
1. OK Zack this is really taking the expression bananas to the extreme. Nice back up fielding Fenway Chris.
2. WOW Great to see a Red Sox great closer! JP!
3. This like Mardi Gra on acid with that parade and owner in a Yello Suite!
4. Don't Like that look from Banana security! They have heard about you in advance LOL
5. This is like a circus paradody of going to a basebaaaall game in this atmophere.
6. Fenway Chris why Am I Watching THis? Thank goodness I am Talking to Mr Boston and Stoned. Ths is bananas.
7. Umpires Twerking? You never see a Supreme Court Judge do that.
8. "What Did I just see?" A player on a big Bounccccey Ball get a Hit."
9. And the Home Team goes BAnanas in the Bottom of the 7th and Pap is pitching!
Fist Bump for Fenway Chris.
The Bananas are coming to my town in 2023! I can't wait.
Dude this is awesome, love that you made it to a game. Spent 4 years here playing for the bananas. Most fun I’ve ever had playing ball. If you ever wanna come back down message me and you’ll always have tickets
Lmfao the fan throwing out the first pitch as a ball that counts for the opposing team so they carry him off the field 😂
Banger video brother!!! Jesse Cole 🐐🐐🐐
Glad you highlighted these guys, it's good to not take everything so seriously and remember to have fun. I've heard nothing but good things about this team... you weren't paid to say any of this right? 🤣🤣 they didn't need to if so
Not paid. Just invited. :)
To bad they don't have banana commemoratives 😂
yes zack finally . love this .. how did you like it? we went to savannah this summer , and went to the stadium and got to tour and talk to some of the front office staff.. waiting for the 2023 tour to be announced to see if they come to madison al!
Isn’t it crazy how they perfectly choreograph this!! Love the vids Zach! Keep up the great work!
Zack*
@@aidanfinkofficial Kcaz*
That was awesome!!!
Jackson is the best! Been loving his story!
When I first heard about this sport I was wondering how long it would take for you to get to one. I was watching that game live and saw you in the crowd and was so excited for this to post ever since😂 nice job
What an interesting and entertaining consept
I have to get out to a Savannah Bananas game at some point! Such an awesome atmosphere there.
I haven't been back in a while I got to go this year I mean incredible
@@hankkingsley9300 They are coming to play at a stadium near where I live finally! I got tickets for Christmas and am so happy!!!!! Looks and sounds like so much fun.
@@RyanHorseHelmet I don't know what they do on the road but I hope for you that they do go bananas the Grayson experience is incredible
@@hankkingsley9300 I mean they are the Savannah Bananas! I can only imagine they will find a way to make it so XD
Hope your 2023 goes well Hank!
Actually they probably saved baseball at Grayson Stadium
THIS IS GREAT!
18:51 Zach you got me dead lmao
I love Zack Hample
met you at angel stadium and watched you catch that grand slam Zack... love everything you do :) youre amazing for the game....my dad was saying youre gonna change the culture of the game and make the homerun seats more expensive than the seats behind the plate
My fellow Cambodians getting recognition!
Wow, that place is an absolute fun riot! How awesome! MLB should definitely take a few pages from this.
Watching while in class, that’s how dedicated I am to this channel
11:03 that’s what it’s all about zack! You made their day and there parents were thrilled !
Finally been waiting for this one
The wait is over!
I love this like this is cool
The Savanna Bananas are the craziest baseball team I’ve ever heard. But if any MLB team did what the Bananas do, they would’ve been fined a ton of money
You mean Major League boring
Hey Zack love your videos ❤
Zack Nice meeting you yesterday. You are a really good guy. I am the guy who sat next to Chris the retired Marine. Your a good dude I don't care what anyone says you treat these kids really nice. Great role model Zack. Tell Chris I said hi also.
Yess I love the bananas 🍌 there games are so cool!!
Can everyone thank Zack on the grind he’s been on 👏
Well, everyone?!
@@zackhample thank you zack
Saw a bunch of Sand Gnat games a few years back. Very old historic stadium..
CRAZY WILD LOVE IT SO MUCH FUN
Thank you Zack
We have to amit. The Savanna Bananas know to make it more entertaining then MLB was.
MLB needs to take notes that Savanna Bananas treat the players and fans right was all about having fun, and have a good time.
Damn the banana Nana's
This is better than a rockies game for sure
Watching your videos reminds me of going to ball games with my day as a kid
Live this .we're going bananas 🍌 right now .
Zack you would fit right in with them. Patrol the outfield and make another run. Zach catches your HR it’s a single!!!! Have fun
Zack*
seems like literally going 🍌🍌 fun to see how much joy they, have during the game
I suggested you go to a game (i've only watched online) and you said you were hoping to go soon....BOOM here it is!
Thank you Zack for this video but also thank you for the banana let you share this video to me. But what a wild video it so wild I wish I could see the Major League Baseball player do it. Like who does a flip out in the field while trying to catch a baseball and who goes on stilts while pitching a game.
everybody has gone bananas in this video lol
Makes days way better
Hi I love ur videos zach keep them up man
Wow everyone there seems so nice and friendly
Love the bananas
We used to have a professional softball team here called The King and His Court. 4 guys on the team that would play full teams. It was a wild time.
I remember kingennis Court what was his name Eddie something
Zack, if it wasn't for you, I would've never had heard of this team, or their act. It was so darn entertaining ! The half hour flew by. I can't wait for part two ! Glad you & Mr. Fenway enjoyed yourselves !
🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌
awesome video
Who in the world are the Savannah Banana's? I have never heard of them before. Great video as always so keep up the great work.
living under a rock
You've got to plan a trip to Grayson for banana ball
Ringling Brothers meets MLB. 😂
you should definitely come out here to Akron Ohio next season to witness an Akron rubberducks game and trust me you won't be disappointed
I hope you enjoyed your time in Savannah. Did you make it down to River Street?
Hey Zack can you find out more info on the team or teams that they play? I’ve always wondered that like is it the same team? It seems like they do the same kinda stuff as the bananas do
I live a Savannah! Lol 😂
I mean like what MLB should do is have a walk out to the field like they do in soccer. The umpires, and the starting players from each team that walk from the clubhouses out onto the field.
