Former New Orleans Saints quarterbacks Drew Brees and Tyler Shough made surprise appearances at a Savannah Bananas exhibition game at the Superdome. Brees, a Super Bowl champion and Hall of Famer, grounded out in his only at-bat during the sold-out event. He also led the crowd in his famous pregame chant from the Saints' 2009 championship run.

Shough, who also played baseball growing up, revealed a yellow Savannah Bananas jersey under his Saints attire during his Saturday appearance, gathering his teammates for a mock touchdown celebration. Both players expressed awe at the unique atmosphere, with Shough calling it 'like Saints playoffs right here.'.
