Get your tickets now: a real baseball show is coming to the South Side in 2025.
Yesterday, the Savannah Bananas announced part of their 2025 schedule that will see them visit more MLB ballparks around the United States. Among their trips: a stop in Chicago for games on August 15 and 16 at Guaranteed Rate Field.
In case you’re unfamiliar, based out of Savannah, Georgia, the Savannah Bananas are an independent, traveling baseball team that often gets likened to the Harlem Globetrotters. The appeal is their consistent fan interaction and desire to make the game as fun as possible, coming up with whacky rules that keep the spirit of the game intact while bringing a new joy that is truly for all ages.
Their 2025 schedule will build upon their 2024 Banana Ball World Tour, in which the organization traveled around the United States and played baseball games at various ballparks, including Cleveland, Boston, and Philadelphia. Some new ballparks for this year include Guaranteed Rate Field, Truist Field in Atlanta, Tropicana Field in Tampa, Camden Yards in Baltimore, PNC Park in Pittsburgh, Yankee Stadium in New York, T-Mobile Park in Seattle, and even football stadiums.
You can find the entire Savannah Bananas 2025 schedule above, as well as a link to enter a lottery to receive tickets to one of their games. From personal experience: don’t get your hopes up, as these are consistently sold out events. You’ll definitely need to get lucky to see the Bananas win on the South Side in person.
… Then again, that’s kinda like the White Sox nowadays.
