I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'for loco' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'every one getting 50 per cent off lucy nabs ticket' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'one' could be 'an' (an apple is one apple) and 'an' is found in the answer.
'per' could be 'a' and 'a' is found in the answer.
an anagram of 'nabs' is 'bnas' which is within the remaining letters.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

(Other definitions for bananas that I've seen before include "hands" , "bats" , "Mad - curved fruits" , "Crazed" , "Fruit - nuts" .)
