Cool. I find that hard to believe though. I rarely see any Panthers fans here on Oahu. I think I've seen like 2 people with a Cam jersey compared to the hundreds I've seen with Kaepernick or Wilson jerseys.

Mariota jerseys are selling like hotcakes here. Many of the stores are sold-out and backordered as soon as the shipments come in.

I lived there for 6 years (all before Cam was drafted, though) and there were a surprising number of Panthers fans out there.  I met a few, the only individual teams I saw more fans of were Steelers (Polamalu), 49ers and Raiders.

All those Wilson and Kaepernick jerseys might be the west coast people on vacation, since the Seahawks and 49ers are by far the two biggest fanbases in the mainland closest to Hawaii.

This is going by purchases from the Hawaii area, which apparently Cam was #1.  But yeah, Mariota will definitely be #1 the next time results are rounded up.

I've lived here all my life and have been a Panther fan since the beginning and have only met like 8 people who we're legit Panthers fans. Most were military from NC.

I frequent a lot of sports bars and the only time I've ever seen fans was the Patriots MNF game and Buc MNF game years ago.

Tourist do sometimes wear NFL gear but its not that common. 

The island is full of locals who are Seahawks, Chargers, Raiders, 49ers, and Broncos fans.

Theres only a few places that carry Panthers gear, Lids, Lids Locker Room, and maybe Star Apparel.

Sports Authority, Champs, Footlocker, FootAction, Macy's, Lids, Lid Locker Room etc, all carry Chargers, Raiders, 49ers, Seahawks, Broncos Gear all the time!

      Legette. Wrist surgery?

      I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛

      Daniel Jeremiah: Panthers prime trade candidate

      bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
