The one in Columbia is at Finlay Park. Been there in the past for the Panthers Caravan tours they used to do. Very glad they are going to be back. I plan to make the short ride from Augusta.

I went to one and met Chris Gamble, Keary Colbert.

There is another thing in Lexington SC with Mike Tolbert at the new River Bluff high School..maybe a camp?

Steve Smith was at one of the ones I attended in Columbia. I think Reggie Howard, Chris Draft, and Jason Baker were there, too. Gamble and Colbert could have been there as well. Don't remember.

Leaving Greensboro now. There's going to be a ton of disappointed people. Huge turnout and I think the players got there late. I was 90 minutes early and the line grew 5-10 times longer after. A rep came and told us that the line had been cut off and we weren't gonna make it, so I sat out there for two hours for nothing.

Plus there was a small group of San Fran trolls. Disorganized mess.

Are you serious?

Yeah, I was just about to come back and give the full story. I got there around 1:30 this afternoon. I'd imagine I was one of the first 35-50 people there. The whole evening people were cutting line by the dozens and the staff refused to do anything about it. Around 5 PM some 49ers fans decided to enter the park and taunted, cursed and just verbally abused the fans. CURSED AT CHILDREN EVEN. The staff did NOTHING. When the players actually got there I had been pushed back so far the police came and put a gate in front of us and said sorry we are only letting 300 in. The staff comes up and tells some of the people in the back that they probably won't even be seen either. A child with downs  syndrome started crying. the mom asked if anything could be done for her child and the staffer was an absolute douche to the kid. I told the staff I was one of the first 50 people there and they should of done a better job and the dude went off on me screaming and yelling about how this isn't his problem and I need to go down to the other road show and get there earlier. 

 

God bless the guy who stomped one of the 49er fans in the back.

I've been in contact with the Panthers via Twitter and Email. It appears 100's were very dissatisfied. I received this email a moment ago.

 

 

Hi Jakob,

Thank you very much for providing us with that information – the majority of our digital media team did not attend this event, so we’re going to regroup with the road show committee on Monday AM to get as many details as possible and figure out how we can fix this for future road shows and make amends to as many fans as possible. We’ll reach out as soon as we have more information.

 

Thank you for being a fan of the Carolina Panthers, we really appreciate your passion and support. Have a nice weekend, and we will speak with you soon.

 

Sincerely,

The Panthers Digital Media Team
