It would still be better than baseball. It’s the most boring sport in the world particularly at the major leagues.

Their games are sold out years in advance and you have to get a lottery ticket for a chance to buy one.

Growing up we went to see the Harlem Globetrotters at the Monroe Civic center and pretty sure my dad bought tickets at the entrance.

If the Globetrotters had a better social media presence they'd have better crowds. I think they got stale.

My Pops got us tickets when I was little and we were courtside, on the floor. I played catch with one of them, can't remember which one for the life of me, and got the confetti bucket dumped on me. It was fun......just a good time.

Everyone, even the baseball purists would agree, baseball can lag a bit. Even MLB has tried to speed up the game a bit with moves to a pitch clock, limits on stoppage, etc.


Never seen a SB game, but it’s all obviously designed to make the game more enjoyable, particularly for kids.


Sorry, but I can’t hate on that.

I know they have a fanbase that will murder you for talking shite,but the last few times I flipped to them on TV, it was a little phaggy. Just saying.

I would rather watch 2 no hitters at the same time with absolutely zero action than watch that umpire twerk for one more second. This is what's making our youth soft and gay.

There is a lot worse people can go to for entertainment.

The only interesting gimmick was the guy on stilts and so far I've seen him three times and he struck out every time

This is why people are using pronouns now.

I bet every player and person associated with Banana Ball has multiple pronouns they associate themselves with. But money is money I guess.

Banana Ball is for kids and people who may not be baseball fans and get bored by it, but like entertainment.

Son was 7 and loved it. He is 8 now and wants to go again.

Going to go out on a limb here.... you aren't their target audience.

It’s something you’re only meant to watch once… minor league baseball on steroids.

The real minors want to do that but MLB which supplies the players mandates they play actual baseball

Yeah as an actual sport it's terrible. As an entertainment event to go to once or twice a year, sure.

Free hot dogs and burgers, chips and a drink.

They even have sections that are all you can drink booze in savannah.

I spend more when I take the family to the movies.

I have no idea how so many people pay to watch that. I feel like I’m living on an alien planet when I see huge crowds watching.
