00:00Banana Ball is baseball's wildest show and it's just begun.

00:04In a yellow tuxedo and bowler hat at Yankee Stadium,

00:08Jesse Cole turned baseball into showbiz.

00:11If Barnum and Bailey ever collided with the MLB,

00:14Banana Ball would be the result.

00:16And Cole, its top-hatted architect,

00:18has built something that is not just a game, but a movement.

00:23Jesse and Emily Cole sold everything,

00:25even their bed, to keep their dream alive.

00:27A million dollars in debt.

00:30Fast-forward a decade,

00:31and the Savannah Bananas have sold out stadiums in 25 states,

00:35performed at 17 Major League ballparks,

00:38and drawn 2.2 million fans during a record-smashing tour.

00:42A sport reimagined, faster, funnier, and full of fans.

00:47Bunting is illegal.

00:50And when the game's tied, forget extra innings.

00:53We're going to a dramatic, one-on-one showdown.

00:56That's why former WWE wrestlers are throwing golden bananas

00:59for first pitches.

01:01Why Joe Torre is dancing on first base.

01:03And why 12-year-olds like Hank dream of Banana Ball,

01:06not Major League Baseball.

01:08From viral fame to stadium dreams,

01:11Banana Ball goes big league.

01:13Amid the tragedy surrounding Charlie Kirk's assassination

01:16and a visit to New York,

01:17The team reminded their staff,

01:19This world is heavy.

01:20The message?

01:21Banana Ball isn't an escape.

01:24It's a counterweight.

01:25Cole doesn't just want to entertain.

01:27He wants to reconnect people.

01:29To the game.

01:30To each other.

01:31To something lighter.

01:32It's why fans line up by the millions.

01:34Why college football stadiums are next.

01:36And why even MLB might be quietly taking notes.

01:39One heartbeat.

01:41One party.

01:42One purpose.

01:43As lights dimmed for yellow,

01:45The absurd and the profound collided.

01:47In the stands,

01:4849,000 people stood as one.

01:51And as Jesse Cole said,

01:53Eyes bright behind his yellow-tinted vision,

01:55We're just getting started.

01:56We're just getting started.

01:57We're just getting started.

01:58We're just getting started.

01:59We're just getting started.

02:00We're just getting started.

02:01We're just getting started.

02:02We're just getting started.

02:03We're just getting started.

02:04We're just getting started.

02:05We're just getting started.

02:06We're just getting started.

02:07We're just getting started.

02:08We're just getting started.
