The Savannah Bananas added to an already impressive resume on Saturday night.

After hitting a few college football stadiums around the country, the baseball squad broke an attendance record at Kyle Field with over 102,000 fans packing in to see the magic.

The stadium on the campus of Texas A&M in College Station is the fourth-largest college football stadium, trailing only Michigan Stadium (107,601), Beaver Stadium (106,572) and Ohio Stadium (102,780), according to USA TODAY Sports.

This was the largest stop for the Bananas, but also one of the most legendary. In terms of college football stadiums left on the schedule, here's a look at what's left. Tennessee's Neyland Stadium (May 23; 101,821 capacity), Nebraska's Memorial Stadium (June 13; 85,458), Oregon's Autzen Stadium (June 27-28; 54,000) and Iowa's Kinnick Stadium (July 3-4, 69,218).
