The first-ever football stadium Savannah Bananas game will head to Clemson’s Memorial Stadium at 7 p.m. on April 26 to take on the Party Animals. When the news was announced in early October, fans entered a lottery to be chosen to buy tickets, which then closed a month later.
Fans were sent an email on Monday, Jan. 20, informing them if they were selected to buy tickets and which time slot on Tuesday, Jan. 28 they had received to purchase up to six tickets based on availability.
After playing in front of 1 million fans, Savannah Bananas owner, Jesse Cole, said sellouts are expected for the 2025 Banana Ball World Tour. By 3 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 28, the Savannah Bananas announced that Memorial Stadium was completely sold out.
This game marks Banana Ball history, selling out its largest venue yet with 81,000 seats. The Bananas’ biggest game thus far was selling out the Philadelphia Phillies Citizens Bank Park with a crowd of over 45,000 fans.
In preparation, Death Valley will be getting nets, backstops, padding and new dirt to build base paths.
The Bananas can’t wait to run down the hill to give Clemson fans the greatest show in sports, hoping for fans to go “all in” at the Banana Ball game.
“The biggest Banana Ball challenge yet,” Cole said on his social media. “It’s going to be hard to pull off. But it’s going to be electric and unforgettable.”
