Sat Mar 15 22:40:00 UTC 2025: ## Savannah Bananas to Play Record-Breaking Game at Raymond James Stadium
**TAMPA, FL** – The Savannah Bananas, a wildly popular baseball team known for its unique blend of baseball and entertainment, are set to break attendance records this Saturday at Raymond James Stadium. The game, against their rivals the Party Animals, is completely sold out, with over 65,000 fans expected to fill the stadium – a first for the team in a football venue.
The unusual location was necessitated by hurricane damage to the Bananas’ originally scheduled venue, Tropicana Field. Owner Jesse Cole described the event as “our Super Bowl,” expressing gratitude for the overwhelming fan support.
The game holds special significance for several players. Starting pitcher Sean Fluke, a Port Richey native, will take the mound at the stadium where he once worked installing elevators. He expects around 200-300 friends and family in the crowd. Chase Achuff, a St. Petersburg native, expressed excitement about playing in the stadium where he previously attended Buccaneers and USF games.
Pre-game festivities begin at 10 a.m. tomorrow, with gates opening at 4:30 p.m. and first pitch at 7 p.m. Tickets for the event were extremely limited and are now completely unavailable.
