You gotta see this ...



 Whew, that's quite a strike zone! This very well-balanced player on stilts is batting for the Savannah Bananas, a baseball team earning a reputation as the "Harlem Globetrotters of Baseball." During a Bananas game, you may see players lining up for a can-can, filming a TikTok video for their millions of followers, or getting buddy-buddy with their adoring fans. (They win a lot of games, too.) Their "fans first" approach was concocted by owner Jesse Cole, who is often seen wearing his signature banana-yellow tuxedo. A batting lineup in kilts or a cheer squad made up of senior citizens may seem strange to a buttoned-up baseball fan, but the Bananas have celebrated several sold-out seasons in a row. I talked to Bananas star Bill Leroy for this article, and he said that making sure people have a good time is the best victory."When [the fans] leave, we want them to have this idea that the game of baseball can be played joyfully," he told me.



 Update ...

Believe it or not! 
 
This will only make sense to the So Cal readers, but this afternoon at 5:30 pm, we were driving east on the notorious     91 freeway, and had clear sailing!



What would normally be a sea of cars ahead, on a Saturday early evening, was clear!
 

James was using Maps App on his i-phone, which told us there was an accident on the 91 freeway, and as we approached we could see the busy freeway traffic at a stand still. The app directed us to get on the 91 at Weir Canyon, and when we did the accident was just before our on ramp so we flew on by to see the above empty freeway. I couldn't get my phone out fast enough, as I knew no one would believe it?

I could look at "Ongoing Chaos" endlessly but nevertheless I'd like the real chaos to end immediately. Love your great collage, Jacki.
