Banana Ball in Neyland/ May 23

[sonofUT62]

Mods feel free to move. So excited that we were awarded one of the spots on the Tour next year. Looks like we’ll have the Bananas and Luke Combs in the same month.

Don't care a bit about this abomination. I watch sports to see real competition, not Tik Tok dances in between Globetrotter routines.

Yet you cared enough to comment. Some of us have small children who are excited. If it’s not your thing feel free to keep moving.

From tunnel to tunnel is only 400ft, so the long outfield pole will be somewhere in the 300s.

It’s absurd, I suspect the same people who like wrestling like this…to each his own I guess

Idk what the draw is to this. Can’t even stand looking at it

So you didn’t like the Harlem Globetrotters. It’s entertainment.

 

[Power_Sweep_Vol]

Nope…it’s scripted

Uou think this is a joke bro?!

 

[sonofUT62]

Nope…it’s scripted

You couldn’t bat .200 if they told you every pitch that was coming. Scripted or not it still requires ability.

It's funny once. Beyond that it's tiring.

It’s on the front page of ESPN. They listed it ahead of 3 WNBA articles. I would say they’re alerted.

Should be pretty cool, especially with the growing baseball fan base around the area.

Side note - I'm assuming with Banannaball and Luke Combs in May, there's a field replacement slated for next summer, no?

I too hate having fun.

I will. Sports and tik tok are 2 different things in my book. Congrats on the kids though.

Saw them about a month ago in Yankee Stadium. They sold it out twice. It was great entertainment.

Eli Manning was the surprise secret umpire......a really funny routine. I imagine it will be Peyton at Neyland.

I'm glad so many people don't get it......because tickets are already almost impossible to get.

They put on a non-stop show live (tv can't do it justice) with tons of audience participation. If you're looking for a good three hour (the pre-game festivities are also fantastic) block of entertainment at a reasonable price, this is it.

I do love a good baby race.

Yeah… I don’t quite get it either, but obviously it works for them. Everybody that I know who has seen it live says it’s a good show.

This is a very bad idea.

Last summer Clemson was a preseason top five team with a favorite to win the Heisman at qb……

Then banana ball happened in their stadium over the summer.

Just sayin’ …….

Wife had this on one night as I walked through the living room. I asked her if she was watching Magic Mike again. Looked like male strippers dancing around.

Based on what I read here somewhat reinforces what I thought I saw. Sports for chicks, which means….really light on the sports, and really heavy on the dancing and sexy dudes.

Yall have fun.

 

[EasternVol]

Yeah yeah yeah, when do we get roller derby?

get off my lawn


you don't know what you're missing. it is an absolute fun time and they are really damn good baseball players actually. I saw them down here in Jacksonville at the Jumbo Shrimp stadium and it was great.
