Tickets for the August 3rd Savannah Bananas game are purchased and my confirmation email says this purchase is a "legendary move. the news in Bananaland is spreading about our arrival and the Bananas are throwing a party for us"! This sets the tone for some of the hilarity that we will be experiencing. Perhaps you have seen the media coverage on ESPN, Fox Sports, CBS Sunday Morning or Access Hollywood to mention a few.
The trip also includes a trolley tour of the Historic District so you can get orientated to the city and explore on your own. After all, there are only 22 historic squares to visit, each unique but home to beautiful southern homes, museums, historic churches and one of my favorites, the Prohibition Museum!
Our accommodations, The Historic River Street Inn, is located on the "rivah" as they say in Savannah, recently renovated and in the heart of the Historic District.
Please note that you have payment options. 1. Credit card but there is a fee. 2. ACH bank draft - no fee or 3. Venmo or 4. You can send Patty a check. If you choose to do this, please email me at tripsbypatty@gmail.com or call 404-791-3166
If you need to cancel, refunds are available if you can find someone else to take your place OR trip insurance is also available through this website.
Savannah does experience "pop-up" summer storms but it is rare that the entire game is cancelled. The philosophy is that the "show must go on" even if the Banana Ball entertainment is shortened or delayed.
