MrBeast Officially Running the Show: Savannah Bananas Name Him ‘Creative Director of Chaos’ After $100K Giveaway

Jimmy Donaldson, better known to the world as MrBeast, has taken his larger-than-life presence from YouTube to the baseball diamond, and the sports world may never look the same again. The Savannah Bananas, baseball’s most entertaining and unconventional team, officially announced that MrBeast has been named their new “Creative Director of Chaos.” The move comes just days after the YouTube sensation stunned fans by giving away $100,000 during a special event with the team.

For those unfamiliar, the Savannah Bananas aren’t your traditional ball club. Known for their outrageous antics, TikTok-viral stunts, and game-day atmosphere that feels more like a festival than a baseball game, the Bananas have built a global following for blending entertainment with sports. Now, with MrBeast’s involvement, the boundary between reality television, online content, and live sports is about to blur even further.

At the first game since the announcement, fans were treated to a spectacle only MrBeast could orchestrate. In true fashion, he shocked the packed stadium by handing out envelopes stuffed with cash, tossing gift cards from the dugout, and even awarding one lucky fan a brand-new car parked just beyond the outfield fence. By the end of the night, $100,000 had been given away, instantly cementing the collaboration as one of the wildest events in the team’s history.

But the giveaways were just the beginning. According to team owner Jesse Cole, who is famous for his trademark yellow tuxedo, MrBeast will now help shape the team’s creative direction going forward. His official title, “Creative Director of Chaos,” isn’t just for laughs. Cole explained that Donaldson will have input on game-day entertainment, fan challenges, and new surprises designed to keep crowds guessing every single night.

“Jimmy understands spectacle better than anyone alive,” Cole said in a press statement. “The Bananas are built on fun, surprise, and breaking the mold of traditional sports. Who better to push that vision than the guy who’s redefined digital entertainment?”

MrBeast, who boasts more than 250 million subscribers on YouTube, echoed the sentiment with his usual enthusiasm. “I love making people smile and giving them experiences they’ll never forget,” he said. “The Bananas already have that same mission. Together, we’re going to take baseball fun to the next level—maybe even the next galaxy.”

Speculation is already swirling about what fans can expect. Rumors range from “cash-bomb” foul balls and golden ticket giveaways to elaborate challenges where fans could win life-changing prizes mid-game. If MrBeast’s track record online is any indication, no idea will be too big, too wild, or too expensive.

For the Bananas, the partnership could propel them even further into the global spotlight. For MrBeast, it’s yet another example of how he’s expanding his empire beyond YouTube, using his creativity and resources to change industries one at a time.

Baseball may never be the same again. And with MrBeast officially running the show as the “Creative Director of Chaos,” that’s exactly the point.
