1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,559 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:04,760 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. 3 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:07,240 Speaker 2: Final Hour on this Thursday, Dan and the Day. That's 4 00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 2: Dan Patrick's show, keeping an eye on the Open Championship. 5 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:17,079 Speaker 2: Tiger just double bogied few over parr Conditions aren't going 6 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 2: to get much better at Royal Troon certainly today had 7 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:25,400 Speaker 2: some rain and some wins, probably around twenty twenty five 8 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 2: miles per hour, and players are struggling to kind of 9 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 2: figure it out. Also, the greens a little bit slower. 10 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 2: When you play in Scotland or Ireland, they're usually a 11 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 2: little bit slower, and certainly after a little bit of 12 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 2: rain as well. So the adjustments are taking place as 13 00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:44,480 Speaker 2: we speak. At Royal Trum USA basketball handled Serbia yesterday 14 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,199 Speaker 2: twenty four. For Steph Curry, he is such a showman, 15 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 2: even in warm ups, even before warm ups, he's out 16 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 2: there to entertain the crowd. If you show up early, 17 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 2: he's going to entertain you. Other players are just going 18 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 2: through whatever their normal game routine is. But he is 19 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 2: having fun. He's a showman. And then you have the 20 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 2: game where he had where he had twenty four. It's 21 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 2: just one of those reminders when you watch and sometimes 22 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 2: we take greatness. For granted, you get to a point 23 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 2: where you go, yeah, I expect that out of him. 24 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 2: And it's not fair to these players because you know 25 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 2: the degree of difficulty to be able to do it 26 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 2: on a consistent basis, when everybody knows what you like 27 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 2: to do, what's your favorite move, favorite place on the 28 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 2: floor like, and still be able to do it. It's 29 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 2: remarkable and Steph that ability to be able to shoot 30 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 2: and be the greatest shooter of all time. And you 31 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 2: can say you got a chance in your lifetime to 32 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 2: see the greatest shooter of all time, and really there's 33 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 2: no argument with that. You also got to see an 34 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 2: innovator because he did change the game. He changed the game. 35 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 2: Now we can argue did he change the game for 36 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 2: the good? Because there's a lot of imitators there. And 37 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 2: if you watch AAU basketball, you even go down to 38 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 2: high school basketball, junior high basketball, everybody wants to shoot 39 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,639 Speaker 2: the three. Not everybody should shoot the three, but they 40 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 2: all want to shoot the three because of Steph Curry. 41 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 2: And you have Caitlin Clark because of Steph Curry. You know, 42 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 2: it's a byproducts. There's going to be players, you know, 43 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 2: the next five seven ten years where they're greatly influenced 44 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 2: by Kitlyn Clark, greatly influenced by Steph Curry, pattern their 45 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 2: game after them. And you know, the greatest form of 46 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 2: you know, I guess respect is imitation. You're trying to 47 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 2: be that player, trying to play like that player, and 48 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 2: you had that with Steph Curry, and certainly Caitlin Clark. 49 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 2: The impact she's going to have might not be felt. 50 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 2: It'll be felt now because it's tangible people coming to 51 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 2: those games, the audience now, a new TV deal, the 52 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:02,679 Speaker 2: style of play. You might not realize that we might 53 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 2: not see that the true impact for another five to 54 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 2: seven ten years, where players coming up are going to 55 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 2: be that's who I pattern my game after. All right, 56 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 2: see pole question for the final hour on this Thursday. 57 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 2: We got a real doozy. 58 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 3: I'm shocked at how close the poll question from our 59 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 3: one is Okay, I'd rather attend the Olympics or the 60 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 3: Open Championship. For most of the day, Open Championship has 61 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 3: been winning. In the last like fifteen minutes or so, 62 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 3: that's flipped out to the Olympics at fifty. 63 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 2: Well, I get it. Going to the Open Championship is 64 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 2: a bucket list for guys, and especially if you go 65 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 2: to Saint Andrews because that whole environment there. You're in 66 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 2: a college town and it's great. You know that the 67 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 2: course isn't as great as some of the other courses 68 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 2: over there, but it's still Saint Andrews and it should 69 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 2: be on your bucket list. You know. Royal Troon is 70 00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 2: a unique golf course, but I don't know if that's 71 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 2: a travel destination for a lot of people, but it's great. 72 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 2: It's still great to be able to go there. And 73 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 2: the uh, you know train tracks going by. I think 74 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 2: that's the eleventh hole. They got a postage stamp with 75 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 2: you know, coffin bunkers that truly look like you could 76 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 2: bury a coffin in those bunkers. And uh, you know, 77 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 2: it's just the weather. You know, it's just unique. And 78 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 2: when you play, you know, you're looking out at a 79 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 2: hole and you've only played it this, you know, the 80 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 2: first time you play it, and you look out and 81 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 2: you go, where am I hitting it to? And then 82 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 2: you got a caddie who's got a heavy accent. They're 83 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:37,359 Speaker 2: usually betting on you. Uh my guy had a flask 84 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,159 Speaker 2: he was drinking. Uh, you know, taking a little we 85 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 2: whatever they call it. And so I'm like, all right, 86 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 2: you know, I'll take a we nip off of that. 87 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 2: You know, there, take a we nip. It was cold. 88 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 2: It was cold, and it's cold now. You know, it's 89 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 2: it's a July and you got you know, these guys 90 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 2: are bundled up. It's like they're going to a Bears 91 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 2: game in December. But it's unique and the people they 92 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 2: understand golf, and you know, it's fun to do it 93 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 2: if you get an opportunity. It is a bucket list item. 94 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 2: But going to the Olympics, it's great if you go 95 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 2: to the right place. And I said London was spectacular, 96 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 2: Sochi was terrible. We couldn't go anywhere. They were worried 97 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 2: about security when we were in Russia. That I went 98 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 2: pretty much a two mile radius every single day that 99 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 2: I was there at the Olympics. I couldn't go off campus, 100 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 2: we couldn't go into downtown. They wouldn't let us go anywhere. 101 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 2: They were worried that something could happen. So it was 102 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 2: really a miserable experience. I mean I got to host 103 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 2: the Olympics and got to go to events, but still 104 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 2: you couldn't experience Sochi Rio Rio was fun. But then 105 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 2: they said at night where we were, you know, be 106 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 2: careful of pickpocketers. Make sure you're walking with a couple 107 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 2: of people, or we had to have security walking around. 108 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 2: But you know, the scenery was spectacular, certainly when you 109 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 2: went to the beach in Brazil, if you know what 110 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 2: I mean. London was great. I can't say enough about London. 111 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 2: Vancouver was wonderful as well, very very pretty. So to 112 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 2: be able to go to the Olympics, not even you know, 113 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,799 Speaker 2: working the Olympics, but just to go and see certain events, 114 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 2: events that you would probably never think you would go to, 115 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 2: and then you end up you're watching badminton and you're going, damn, 116 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 2: they are great. Just one of those where you go, 117 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 2: like team handball, You're going, yes, this is exciting. How 118 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 2: does this not take off in the United States? Handball? 119 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,919 Speaker 2: Team handball? It's violent out there. 120 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 4: Yes, Marvin, what's your first sport to go to if 121 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 4: you had your choice of the summer Olympics, where would 122 00:06:59,640 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 4: you go? 123 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 2: Track and field? Probably track and field because there's a 124 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 2: lot going on. I mean the basketball, you know, I went. 125 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 4: See them all year. 126 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so's that's nothing unique. Swimming was great swimming 127 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 2: because Michael Phelps was swimming. And now you have Katie 128 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 2: Ladeci just to be in the building when those things happen, 129 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 2: and when you're watching Michael Phelps and you you know, 130 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 2: I didn't see Mark Spitz swim in person in the 131 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 2: what seventy two Olympics. But to be able to see 132 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 2: Michael Phelps, Katie Ladeci, I mean, derra torres. I mean 133 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 2: you're able to say that, you know, you know, you've 134 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 2: got to see some of the greatest of all time 135 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 2: do what they do. And that's why I got into 136 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 2: this in the first place, to be able to cover 137 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 2: these events, to be able to see them in person. 138 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 2: And the Olympics still special. When I saw Usain Bolt 139 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 2: run and he was running the two hundred meters and 140 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 2: I remember we were right on the turn, my wife 141 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 2: and I right on the turn, and I just like 142 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,679 Speaker 2: she said, is it over? And I said yes, because 143 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 2: it you know, it's twenty seconds, and she goes, is 144 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 2: it over? I go yes, he goes, that was fast. 145 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 2: I go. But watching him in person and realizing how 146 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 2: TV can slow it down so it doesn't look like 147 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 2: they're running that fast. But when you see somebody run 148 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 2: by you and I think it kind of hit me, 149 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 2: just like people don't realize how fast that is. Like 150 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 2: you watch it on TV and you're like, okay, what's 151 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 2: the time, you know, nineteen point three, and I'd be like, 152 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 2: all right. When you're watching it in person, it's it's 153 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 2: almost like here he comes, there he goes, and then 154 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 2: it was over. So you get a sense just oh 155 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 2: my god, dudes are flying. Yes, yes, it was he was. 156 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 2: He was flying. 157 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 3: Well, those other guys are running faster than you've ever 158 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 3: seen anybody you're human eyed before too. 159 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:02,679 Speaker 2: There just happens to. 160 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: Be one guy. 161 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 2: He was flying. They were running fast, and there was 162 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 2: a big difference in that. 163 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 3: That's got to really stink, like you're that good, you're 164 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 3: that fast, you're blazing fast. You're faster than most people 165 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 3: can even dream of running. But there's one guy that 166 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:20,959 Speaker 3: just happens to be that guy. 167 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 2: But think of all the sports in history where it 168 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,559 Speaker 2: was that guy got in the way.

But to watch speed, and I 210 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 2: go back to when you watch something in person and 211 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 2: you walk watch at court level or field level, it's 212 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 2: just different. You know, sit behind home plate when somebody 213 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:35,719 Speaker 2: is thrown a hundred uh be on the sidelines, when 214 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 2: somebody gets tackled right in front of you, when somebody 215 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,680 Speaker 2: comes down the lane and dunks on somebody, uh be 216 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 2: behind uh you know the goalie, and watch what that. 217 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 2: You know, the chaos that happens in front of a goalie, 218 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 2: you know, just fun things, unique things to be able 219 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 2: to witness that. But it's different in person. It is yes, Mark, 220 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,439 Speaker 2: you saying both. You know, the young kids say that 221 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 2: I'm him Himathy. That's one of those I'm him moments, Yes, 222 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 2: where it's like I'm dominating so bad my arms are 223 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 2: out before the race is even over. And these are 224 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 2: some of the fastest people that have ever walked the earth. 225 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 4: The guy who finished in dead last, you couldn't I 226 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 4: couldn't fathom being that fast and he is two seconds 227 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 4: behind this guy. 228 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,440 Speaker 2: But you're you're I think he might be underrated. I 229 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 2: think Usain Bolt might be underrated because we just don't 230 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 2: realize how much better he was in a sport where 231 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:35,439 Speaker 2: you're better by a tenth, like a thick. I mean, 232 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 2: these guys are running these events and you see Bolt 233 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 2: and he's finishing, and these guys are stretching and got 234 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 2: their head out like they're they're doing their best just 235 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:51,199 Speaker 2: to make it close competitive, and nobody did. I mean, 236 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 2: that's when Prince Harry came in and he said, so 237 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 2: they were waiting to start the race and then all 238 00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 2: of a sudden they all come on the track and 239 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 2: you see all the light bulbs, you know, flashball, boom boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, 240 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 2: boom boom, and then all of a sudden, Prince Harry 241 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 2: comes in, sits down. Runners, take your mark over. Prince 242 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 2: Harry gets up and he got up quicker than Usain 243 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 2: Bolt probably did take, you know, running the two hundred meters. 244 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 2: But yeah, it's just that that vision will never ever 245 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 2: leave me.

Their entertainment and a baseball team. 363 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 2: You've probably seen a lot of the highlights there. They're 364 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,879 Speaker 2: dressed in their banana yellow uniform and they put on 365 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,679 Speaker 2: a show. They were just in DC.

How 370 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 2: much is baseball and how much is entertainment with your team? 371 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 10: I would say it's one hundred percent banana ball, So 372 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 10: I wouldn't even you know, compare an insulate to baseball. 373 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 10: Developing the new rules, the new experience, the new entertainment, 374 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 10: the new speed of the game, plus everything. It's a 375 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 10: different game. And yes we've been unbelievably inspired by baseball, 376 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 10: but you know it's it's a fast, entertaining, exciting game 377 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 10: that we're trying to make a little bit different than baseball. 378 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 2: If I go to one of your games, what do 379 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,640 Speaker 2: you guarantee. 380 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 10: You're going to see something you've never seen before? In 381 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 10: a baseball field like centerfield, they're doing a backflip, catch, 382 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 10: a guy coming up to bat with a bat on fire, 383 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 10: a pitcher on st hilts. Infielders doing you know, catching 384 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 10: a ball between their legs, then dribbling it back and 385 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 10: then throwing in the first basement who then catches it 386 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 10: between their legs, then them celebrating at home with a 387 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,119 Speaker 10: huge production dance number. 388 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 2: But are you going after entertainer first, then athlete the 389 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 2: baseball player. 390 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,399 Speaker 5: Well, all of our players have to play at a 391 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 5: high level. 392 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 10: So you know, we have numerous guys that have been 393 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 10: in minor league baseball, professional baseball, from first round draft 394 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,160 Speaker 10: picks to you know, high prospects that have been part 395 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 10: of organizations. So they have to be able to play 396 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 10: the game, but they also have to be able to 397 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 10: entertain and so every day these guys are working on 398 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 10: trip plays. Every day, these guys are working on new dances, 399 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 10: new celebrations, just to keep the fan base engaged so. 400 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:45,360 Speaker 2: More likely to hire a choreographer or a hitting coach both. 401 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 5: And we have both. 402 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,199 Speaker 10: You know, we have a dance instructor, choreographer, we have 403 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 10: a live band. Yeah, every day we're doing new dances 404 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 10: they've never done before as well. And then we have 405 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 10: obviously some baseball coaches that are again teaching banana ball. We're 406 00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,679 Speaker 10: teaching pitchers how to throw a pitch every three to 407 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 10: four second, how to strike out a guy in nine seconds. 408 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 10: You know, we're teaching the game in a very different way, 409 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 10: and so there are baseball guys that have learned to 410 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 10: evolve to banana ball. 411 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 2: Okay, but take me back when it first started. 412 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 10: Back to eight years ago when we started the Savannah Bananas. 413 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 10: You know, my wife and I had this big dream 414 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 10: to make baseball fun and we came there. We started 415 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,919 Speaker 10: telling everyone our vision, you know, inspired by P. T. Barnum, 416 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 10: Walt Disney, and people looked at us like we were crazy. 417 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,679 Speaker 10: I mean, we only sold a handful of tickets in 418 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 10: our first few months, and by January twenty sixteen. 419 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 5: We overdrafted our account. 420 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 10: We were out of money, we had to sell our 421 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 10: house MTR savings account. We were sleeping on an airbed and 422 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 10: it was because no one had seen it, you know, 423 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 10: they hadn't experienced it. And so once we got enough 424 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 10: people to come out of the first game and see, 425 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,880 Speaker 10: you know, there are no ticket fees, no convenient fees, 426 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 10: no service fees, all inclusive food, everything that we believe 427 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 10: in fans first they started telling everyone and since that 428 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,399 Speaker 10: first year, we've sold out every single game and the 429 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 10: wait lists just passed over two point seven million for tickets. 430 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,919 Speaker 2: Is there a Harlan Globetrotter's feel wet compared to that? 431 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 10: And at first, you know, definitely honored. I've studied them 432 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 10: as much as you know The Grateful Dead and Saturday 433 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 10: Night Live and WW and Circus LA. 434 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 5: But with Harlem Globetrotters. 435 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 10: You know, they fundamentally changed the game of basketball in 436 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,199 Speaker 10: the nineteen thirties, forties and fifties. You know, as you know, 437 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 10: you know they Will Chamberlain played for them before he 438 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 10: played for the Lakers. 439 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 5: The Globetrotters beat the Lakers. 440 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 10: You know, they were playing competitive basketball at the highest level. 441 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 10: And then it torned into let's do this all the 442 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 10: show and let's replicate that, and they did a great job. 443 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,160 Speaker 10: Every game is competitive for us. You never know who's 444 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 10: going to win. And we're building something what we believe 445 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 10: is the sport of Banana ball as much as the 446 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 10: Bananas as the lead brand, so inspired by them, love 447 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 10: what they did for basketball. We hope we can bring 448 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,000 Speaker 10: more fun to the game of baseball. 449 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 2: What's the one thing you do, the one rule that 450 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 2: you have that you wish Major League Baseball would adopt. 451 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 10: I think everyone will say if a fan catches a 452 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 10: foul ball, it's an out, because you know, just last 453 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 10: week at the Nationals Park, you know, we had three 454 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 10: fans catch foul balls and big situations, and we've had 455 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 10: a fifteen year old kid catch a foul ball to 456 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 10: win a game, which is unbelievable. But you know, think 457 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,560 Speaker 10: about the two hour time limit and you think about 458 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 10: if you win an inning, you get a point. So 459 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 10: every inning is a walk off situation. I mean walk 460 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 10: off home runs in the fifth inning. It's exciting. No 461 00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 10: stepping out of the box, no walks, no bunting, no 462 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 10: mound visits. So everything has tried to make the game faster. 463 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,439 Speaker 10: And you know, he played the game on ESPN the 464 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,399 Speaker 10: day an hour in twenty nine minutes, nine innings. So 465 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 10: I think everyone wants the fan caught foul ball, but 466 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 10: I think there's other ones that could probably go into 467 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 10: the game a little easier. 468 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 2: How do you get resumes or I'm guessing maybe players 469 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 2: send videos as opposed to a resume. 470 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 10: Yeah, you got that right. It's auditions. So it's audition tapes, 471 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 10: so very similar. You know, again Saturday Night Live and 472 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 10: you know probably Circus LA. We get audition videos and 473 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 10: so yeah, I mean at first, when no one wanted 474 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 10: to buy tickets, no one wanted to play for a 475 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 10: team called the Bananas. I think we've heard from maybe 476 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 10: four or five thousand players and a lot of guys 477 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 10: in minor league ball, and they send videos of them 478 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 10: juggling or videos of them dancing or you know what, 479 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 10: tap dancing or whatever they can while throwing the ball 480 00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,639 Speaker 10: ninety two miles an hour, and I'm like, all right, 481 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 10: looks good. 482 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 5: Let's see what we got. 483 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 2: He's Jesse Cole, the Savannah Bananas owner, co founder of 484 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:10,439 Speaker 2: Fans First Entertainment. When you start to look at putting 485 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 2: on nights, different nights with the Bananas, you've had good 486 00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 2: and bad. Give me, give me some of the good 487 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 2: that you've done, and then a couple of the bad 488 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 2: nights that you were trying to present. 489 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:24,679 Speaker 5: Well, the bad's easier. 490 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 10: You know, every night is a show, and we do 491 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 10: ten to fifteen things every night We've never done in 492 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 10: front of a live crowd. So I could go into 493 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,119 Speaker 10: you know, the living Pinata to the pregnant women dance 494 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 10: off to flatulence fun. 495 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:37,120 Speaker 5: Night, to salute underwear night. 496 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 10: You know, we do things every single night that might 497 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 10: not go well. 498 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 2: Wait, wait, how does flatulence fun night? 499 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:44,719 Speaker 7: Oh? 500 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 5: That was very simple.

That was a fun one we did at Houston, 524 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 10: our major League stadium for the first time. But uh 525 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 10: mena pops, I mean I could keep going. We did 526 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 10: pass the Bill in DC where we actually had people 527 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 10: our teams passing people named Bill all the way down 528 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 10: the lines. 529 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 5: And so there's a lot of creativity. 530 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 10: A lot of things do work, but our fans expect 531 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 10: their ridiculousness, which is which is pretty cool to say. 532 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,960 Speaker 2: Okay, in all seriousness, if you can sit down with 533 00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 2: Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred and he asked for advice how 534 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 2: to make Major League Baseball more fun, what would you 535 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:09,159 Speaker 2: tell him. 536 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:15,439 Speaker 10: Encourage all the celebrating for the players, break down the 537 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 10: barriers between the players and the fans. You go back 538 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 10: to when it was a game back in the nineteen 539 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 10: fifties and sixties, and you see the fans interacting with 540 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 10: the players. In different levels, you see the players having 541 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 10: more fun, and I think the celebrating. You know, in 542 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 10: some levels of baseball they discourage all of that. Kids 543 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 10: want to see something that is fun. You think about 544 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 10: football in the touchdown celebrations. I know, when we play 545 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 10: the game, Dan, we're told act like you've done it before, 546 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 10: But that's not what creates fans. Creates fans seeing these 547 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 10: guys that are at the highest level celebrating it and 548 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 10: really enjoying it. You know, I think they're getting better 549 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 10: at the speed of the game, But just encourage guys 550 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 10: after a home run, after a big strikeout, to celebrate 551 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 10: and fun ways, use props, use dances, use all that. 552 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 10: We try to celebrate things larger than life. And to 553 00:28:57,840 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 10: see the fans in their response to it has been really, 554 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:00,479 Speaker 10: really special. 555 00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 2: When I first saw you guys, I couldn't help but 556 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 2: think what Bill Veck would be thinking about this, and 557 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 2: I'm sure he would have been smiling, saying, it's about 558 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:12,240 Speaker 2: being a showman, it's about having fun. It's a game, 559 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 2: and there shouldn't be this line of demarcation between a 560 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 2: player and a fan. The line should blur. 561 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 10: Bill Beck a tremendous inspiration for me. I've read all 562 00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 10: his books, I've studied from him, I've got to know 563 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 10: his son, Mike Vac and I love his quote. I 564 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 10: try not to break the rules. I merely test their elasticity, 565 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 10: and that's and that's what he did. He went to 566 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 10: the edge on everything. He would sit with the fans, 567 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 10: you know. I mean he once gave a fan twelve 568 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 10: live lobsters during a game just to see what he 569 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 10: would do with them. 570 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 5: I mean, it was all about a reaction, and. 571 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 10: He was unfortunately so far ahead of his time that 572 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 10: the other owners and baseball you know, gave him a 573 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 10: lot of challenges. I admire him, Walt Disney, P. T. 574 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 5: Barnum. 575 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 10: I hope that, you know, we would be making him 576 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 10: proud with what we're doing to bring joy to the 577 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 10: game and also get so many more kids to play 578 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 10: the game and want to be a. 579 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 5: Part of it. I think that's part of what we're 580 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 5: trying to do. 581 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 2: Vas Sectomy night. Have you had that REVERSECT vas sectomy night? 582 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 5: That was I think I think his son Mike Veck 583 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 5: did that right. 584 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, it's I mean the idea is again so 585 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 10: many great ideas of the industry. You know, we're just 586 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 10: trying to look at the sport and try to keep 587 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 10: keep that going, you know, because as we've gone into 588 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 10: more stats and more analytics and more competitiveness. I mean, 589 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 10: now we're fortunate that we have so many major leaguers 590 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 10: joining us, you know, from Roger Clemens playing with us, 591 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 10: and Jake Peeve and all these guys joining. 592 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 12: Us, and they say they get to just go out 593 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 12: and have fun, and it was so competitive, it was 594 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 12: so die hard you had to compete. Now they want 595 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:37,360 Speaker 12: that and that's why we played as a kid.
