How to Get the Fruitball Seed
The only way to obtain the Fruitball seed was by attending the Travis Kelce / Celebrity Guest Admin Event held inside the game. This special event was revealed and teased on Roblox's official TikTok account, and players present during the final minutes of the interview with Travis Kelce were gifted the seed directly.
Note: It was not available through traditional shops or farming mechanics and has not returned since.

Fruitball Appearance
- The Fruitball crop closely resembles American footballs in shape and size.
- The color scheme matches the NFL branding, specifically mirroring the Kansas City Chiefs colors, which is the team Travis Kelce plays for.
- The in-game plant structure is similar to the Mango Tree.
- Interestingly, the Fruitball's final in-game appearance did not match the original preview image shown during the event.
Trivia & Glitches
- First seed obtained from an admin event.
- First collaboration seed, excluding prior themed events like Bizzy Bees.
- A glitch initially gave the Fruitball a base price of ~34,000, due to an exaggerated "huge chance" value.
- This was silently nerfed to a true value around ~7,000, referred to by players as a “shadow nerf”.
Why It's Special
The Fruitball seed stands as a commemorative item marking one of the game's biggest celebrity moments and a pivotal pre-update event. With no current method of obtaining it again, it remains a badge of honor for dedicated players who experienced the Travis Kelce admin event firsthand.
