Why do you think you see pictures of a stadium full of people wearing bags when they played horrible? The fans were still there supporting the team even when they were horrible. Falcons can't even fill up their stadium before halftime in years they go 12-4. I remember the Georgia Dome offering free hot dogs to bribe people into being in their seats when game starts.

Jk but I do agree y'all are much better than the falcons and bugs as far as fans

UUhh. Your stadium was not full when you were the bagheads. Get real. That stadium sold out in the early 90s and the late 00s. 

 

 

 

In 2006 despite being a better team you were behind the falcons in attendance. 

2007 when everyone knew we would suck? 3 spots ahead in attendance LOL. NO was a sb pick that offseason.

 

Just for the record i do think Saints fans are more loyal on average. The true ones anyway.

I just hope to one day see our stadium packed full of Panthers fans...not Cowboys, Steelers, or Redskins fans. I also hope the lower bowls are someday filled with people that actually care to be there. As a diehard Panthers fan I've gotta admit, our gameday fanbase is pretty pathetic.

Until I started posting here, I had never heard of this and still find it very strange. Why would you go to another teams game all the time in your teams jersey? I mean I understand if you want to see the occasional live football game so you go to the local teams game, but they have people with Panther season tickets doing this. A lot of times these people are at the Panthers game while their team plays at same time, why wouldn't you want to watch your own team play on TV at home or at a local sports bar with fans of same team? It makes sense if it's playoffs or SB and your team is eliminated, but otherwise, Just so strange!

It's actually pretty simple.  Charlotte is a huge melting pot of people.  Being the #2 banking city in America brings a lot of people down here from up North, and with them, their teams.  Other jobs have done the same, not to mention people flocking to the triangle area for jobs as well.  Less taxes, less cost of living, and a booming economy brought down tons of people.   I know some real estate agents and half their clients are from NY.  They inherit their parents' house and sell it for a good sum then buy a bigger and nicer house in NC for half the money as the one they sold.    That, combined with the fact that before the Panthers came around people in this area were Redskins and Steelers fans and still hang onto their old teams.  

 

It's a catch-22, on one hand you want all Panthers fans there, but on the other if we weren't a melting pot there is a good change we wouldn't even have sports teams.   Our best bet is the children of those fans become Panthers fans from growing up here.  It'll take time.  Not having back to back winning seasons also hurts the growth.
