I had no idea the resale tickets would go so high. Like like the cheapest tickets are $200 each. Is crazy m is not even a single A team. It's not even the Bananas. I never paid that much to see any LSU baseball game. I knew it was popular. Had a friends kids tell me about the game. I watched some Banana games and looks like fun. But $215 a ticket? Some as high as $700. And again it's not even the main teams. I can see why they are selling out MLB and college football stadiums.

Is this like paying to see the teams that the globetrotters play, play each other?

I honestly don’t understand it. It’s obviously popular. I just don’t know how this has lasted this long.

Yeah. Pretty much. Exactly what it is. But sold out. Prices high all over.
I had no idea Banana ball was this big. I thought that team was a joke. They are really the most popular baseball team. They sold out Clemson football stadium for a minor league baseball game.

It’s no different than taking the fam to a mister track rally or something like that.

It looks like they fixed the biggest problem in baseball. By making it less boring.
I like that if a fan catches a foul ball it's an out.
If a player bunts they are kicked out the game.
I also like that the scoring system. The most runs per inning wins the inning and gets 1 point. Game ends at 2 hours.
Teams can have a golden batter who can be any person. From mlb stars to Sandlot actors.

Idk i paid $30 each last time i saw the monster trucks.
I was thinking in my head $200 to take 4 people to a minor league baseball game. I mean Zephyrs tickets were almost free. $800 is steep.

The owner says that in every interview. It's Banana ball. It's pretty much baseball Harlem Globetrotters except they don't win every game.

It’s not baseball. It’s a show.

That’s not baseball either. It’s purely entertainment.

This sounds like MTV Rock n Jock type stuff.

And added a chorus to make it look like a baseball version of Jesus Christ Superstar, The Musical.

Right. I get why some people find it entertaining. I’m just curious what the staying power is. Do people go to several games a year? Is it a once a year thing?

I personally would rather watch real baseball but I get why people like it. I wouldn’t spend that much to watch it but I don’t fault people that want to go on a date or take their kids to a fun time.

They travel around. It’s like taking your kids to the circus or fair when it rolls through.
