Drew Brees Lights Up The Season, Saints Thrive In His Debut!
Pro Football Hall of Famer. New Orleans Saint. Savannah Banana.
Drew Brees surprised fans at Sunday's barnstorming baseball game.
Drew Brees has worn a lot of titles and played for a lot of teams over the years: Purdue Boilermaker, New Orleans Saint, and Pro Football Hall of Famer. On Sunday, he got to add a new title to his list as a guest member of the Savannah Bananas. Brees grounded out in his plate appearance but earned a standing ovation from the sold-out crowd of baseball fans at the Caesars Superdome.
"There’s been a lot of great moments in here. Never thought I’d see the Superdome as a baseball field,” Brees laughed on the sideline. "But to be here, to see it, to be a part of it, it's legendary.
" The barnstorming baseball team has become a viral sensation for its stunts and choreographed dances, but moments like this with local favorites are what may set the Bananas apart from other fads that have come and gone over the years. At least they gave fans at the Superdome an opportunity to cheer Brees on one last time. The 🐐 @DrewBrees is the surprise guest at today’s @TheSavBananas game in the @CaesarsDome !
