J&L Historical @Jason_R_Burt - 81 years ago today, Pvt. Jose Valdez single-handedly held off 200 Germans for 15 minutes near Rosenkrantz, France with his rifle & grenades, allowing his 5 comrades to escape.
Mortally wounded, he crawled back to safety & died soon after-earning a posthumous Medal of Honor

Joe Pompliano @JoePompliano - The Savannah Bananas just released a 2025 business update (and the details are wild).
Here's what you need to know:
1. The Bananas played 113 games across college, minor league, MLB, and NFL stadiums
• 2.2 million tickets sold
• 91% ticket redemption rate
If you multiply the cheapest ticket ($35) by the total tickets sold (2.2M), that's $77 million in ticket sales.
The real number is likely even higher.
2. New merchandise sales record
• 787,000 fans bought merch (80% in-person)
• 1.96 million total items sold (2.5 items per person)
The Bananas recently built a 100,000-square-foot warehouse for merchandise, leading to a 47% increase in order fulfillment during the 2025 holiday season.
3. It was a MASSIVE year on social media
• 12.6 million new followers gained
• Over 35 million total followers on all platforms
• 18 million broadcast views on YouTube
National TV broadcasts (ESPN, etc.) averaged 571,000 viewers, with a high of 837,000 on July 4th.
4. Broadcast Investments
• The Bananas invested $13 million in live show production (new control room, camera equipment, etc.)
5. Players and People
• 700+ year-round and seasonal employees
• Over $15 million spent on travel last year
• 150-200 team members travel each weekend
• 12,000 potential employees on a waitlist
The average Banana Ball player now makes more than $100,000 per year.
6. 2026 ticket sales
• Over 4.2 million fans joined the ticket lottery list
• 3.4 million tickets have been sold for 2026
• Premium membership club reached 40,000 members
The Bananas are also launching a secondary ticketing platform — tickets can only be sold at face value, with no fees. The price you see is the price you pay.
But while all of these numbers are extremely impressive, one detail stood out above all else.
In 2025, the Bananas experienced a system issue that negatively affected 40,000 fans (equivalent to 100,000 tickets).
But rather than making these fans deal with the inconvenience, the Bananas offered everyone free tickets, costing them $6 million in lost sales.
Great work @YellowTuxJesse
