LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – The World Series just wrapped up, but another sport is also turning heads. One that is pretty new to all of us is banana ball.
The Savannah Bananas organization created the sport, and it’s taking Arkansan Drake Toll across the country.
It’s not your typical baseball game in fact it’s not really even baseball.
The Savannah Bananas organization is the definition of being opposite of normal. It’s in a league of its own, literally banana ball is a sport within itself.
“Our organization is built on 11 principles, one of those being whatever is normal do the exact opposite,” Toll said.

Four teams make up the Savannah Bananas organization: The Savannah Bananas, Party Animals, the Firefighters and the Texas Tailgaters.
“When the Party Animals and [Savannah] Bananas play, I represent the team with the fans with the players in the dugout and on the sidelines,” Toll said.
With a fur coat, glasses, bright colors and a fun personality, Drake Toll leads the Party Animals broadcasts, providing a fan experience like no other at banana ball games.
