I am a diehard panthers fan and have been for the last 5 years or so since I was 14 and will be for the rest of my life. My family is orginially from brazil so I didn't grow up watching football but rather futbol. I was the first Panthers fan in my family and since then the rest of my family have also started to become fans. I follow everything panthers throughout the entire year. I am a college student in TN so it is difficult to make it to games due to drive and honestly primarily money. Luckily I did make to the home opener vs the Texans this year.
Anyways, I love my Panthers and just about everything about them. Have skipped countless events and things to watch the games and have also been criticized or questioned why I follow them (before we were good).
Simply put, because I love them.
