Savanna Bananas are a sold out entertainment fundraiser for multiple causes.
Tickets depending on who the fundraiser is promoting, can start at $49 up to $900. Few weeks ago was for Children Foster Homes. Dedicated to a family that has raised over 100 hard to place children, in their many years of service.

The last game we tried to get tickets for in SC started at $89 to $850. They were sold out before we could acquire tickets.

Savannah banana ball is entertainment. Usually sold out months in advance. IMO better than watching boring major leagues. Banana fans are right up there with Darts and soccer fans. Fanatics!

Those are resellers. Tickets to the games are very reasonable, but you have to get in a lottery to get them. The tix for their homefield are $45 and that includes free food and beer. Does that sound reasonable enough for you?
I saw them in Nashville, so didn't get the free food and beer.

Correct me if I'm incorrect, but aren't the Savannah Bananas essentially the Harlem Globetrotters of baseball?

My wife took our grandson recently to see them at Fenway Park; tickets were $60 each for grandstand seats.

Harlem Globetrotters were an entertainment event, for Profit Only.
Banana’s are entertainment event for Fundraising. Instead of donating to a cause, you get a show
