The Savannah Bananas, the unconventional independent baseball team that has become a nationwide phenomenon, will take its unique brand of "Banana Ball" to 18 Major League Baseball stadiums and three football stadiums in 2025, it was announced Thursday.

Owner Jesse Cole said sellouts are expected at each of those venues.

"We played in front of 1 million fans this past year," Cole told ESPN. "We're playing in front of 2 million fans next year. Maybe that sounds boastful, but our waitlist is at 3 million right now."

The Bananas will be joined by the Party Animals, Firefighters and a new team, the Texas Tailgaters, during a 39-game tour that runs from March to September.
