The Savannah Bananas have done it again—this time not with a viral dance routine or a wild trick play, but with a Guinness World Record. The team, already known worldwide for redefining baseball with their blend of sport and spectacle, officially set the record for the largest gathering of fans in costume at a baseball game. More than 25,000 supporters showed up in full banana-themed outfits, turning the stadium into a sea of yellow in one of the most colorful and unforgettable moments in sports history.
The event was more than just a record attempt; it was a celebration of what the Bananas stand for—joy, unity, and fan-first entertainment. Families arrived in banana suits, children wore banana hats, and even pets were dressed to match the theme. The crowd’s energy was electric, creating an atmosphere that felt more like a festival than a traditional ballgame.
Guinness officials were on-site to verify the count, and when the announcement was made, the stadium erupted in cheers. For team owner Jesse Cole, who has built the Bananas around the belief that baseball can be both fun and inclusive, the recognition was validation of the team’s mission. “This record belongs to our fans,” Cole said. “They’re the heartbeat of Banana Ball, and tonight they proved the power of community.”
The achievement adds to the Bananas’ growing legacy as not just a team, but a global entertainment phenomenon. From viral social media moments to sold-out tours across the country, they’ve consistently pushed the boundaries of how sports can engage and inspire.
With this Guinness World Record now under their belt, one thing is certain: the Savannah Bananas aren’t just changing the game—they’re rewriting history, one joyful milestone at a time.
