Banana Ball is a fast-paced, action-packed style of baseball with rules that include no bunting, a two-hour time limit, fans catching foul balls for outs, batters stealing first base, and a one-on-one tiebreaker showdown at the end of the game if the game is tied. Suites for the Savannah Bananas are sold out, and registration for the Savannah Bananas Ticket Lottery has closed. For fans who joined the Savannah Bananas Ticket Lottery list, a random drawing will take place about 2 months before the event for the chance to purchase available tickets.
