Who needs that Oklahoma radio station when you’ve got the Savannah Bananas!
The hugely popular team (baseball’s version of the Harlem Globetrotters) blasted Beyoncé’s new country track “Texas Hold ‘Em” on Friday night in Arizona for one of their many choreographed dances. You can see the team — led by their pitcher in a yellow cowboy hat — busting out dance moves on the mound while his fellow infielders follow along right behind him.
The best part? The catcher’s also getting down! At one point he plops down on his belly under the umpire’s legs! The Bananas are in Peoria, Arizona taking on the Party Animals (think Washington Generals).
And anyone who has ever attended a Bananas game or seen one of their many viral videos knows that the antics didn’t end there. The team also found a way to get Swelce involved. Jackson Olson, owner of the Bananas, donned blonde locks to channel his inner Taylor Swift, while Michael Deeb played the role of Travis Kelce as he walked Swift Olson to the batter’s box as “Karma” blared from the speakers.
The announcers had fun with the bit, too. You can hear one of them say, “I mean, it is really something that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have chosen a Banana ball game for their first public appearance since the Super Bowl.”
