The Savannah Bananas are making a stop on their 2024 world tour at LSU’s Alex Box Stadium. And if you aren’t familiar with the Bananas imagine if the Harlem Globetrotters were a baseball team. Laura Cating with Visit Baton Rouge said it’s a perfect fit for the capital city’s culture and the Banana’s first-ever collegiate stadium.
“I cannot think of a better fit for their first collegiate stadium appearance, the home of champions brings in these guys who really just celebrate the fun and the entertainment value of the game of baseball,” said Cating.
They’ll be in town for three nights, March 14th through the 16th and if you want tickets, Cating said you’ll have to enter a lottery at TheSavannahBananas.com/tickets.
“The Bananas themselves will actually do a random drawing and as they select those groups and individuals they will be reaching through email and letting people know about two months out,” said Cating.
The Savannah Bananas have a huge following on social media and Cating said the team is also known for featuring celebrity guests, like Johnny Damon and Hunter Pence.
“We hope to see of course a celebrity on the field at Alex Box with the Bananas who would have a wonderful connection to Baton Rouge to LSU, that would just be a really fun moment for the community,” said Cating.
