Put it into perspective: What would have to happen for you to stop being a Panthers fan?

[hepcat]

I ask you Panther nation, what would it take for you to stop being a fan? When what should be a championship contending team yet again shits the bed, it’s easy to go to a dark place, so let’s put it into perspective. Would it take 10+ consecutive losing seasons like the Browns? A 20 year playoff drought like the Bills? The team moving like the Rams? A slow decline of the NFL in popularity and a subsequent lack of interest in the team? Could you just disconnect yourself because the Panthers have a black cat as a mascot and might be cursed? What would it take?

Only way I'd stop being a fan is if the team moved.  I may become less interested if they turned into the Browns but I'd likely still watch every game.  I'm a Gamecock grad though so I'm accustomed to disappointment.

Would have to be something off the field, like finding out Tepper was running an underage sex ring out of BofA and the players/coaches were in on it. I would never abandon a team because of failures on the field, that's ridiculous.

I've seen this poo show before.  Will be here until I die, or Tepper decides to keep Hurney as GM after the season.  That would do it for me.

As a Gamecock and Panthers fan, I have just accepted that I pull for losers.

I’m still a fan, but i no longer care if they win or lose and I expect very little from them.  The last Super Bowl loss was the straw that broke the camels back for me.

If Ron and Hurney are still around in 2019

They would have to move.

Is this a trick question?

[Pimpdaddy]

i'll never stop being a fan...but i dont have to like or accept the sht thats going on.

[Green_Tea]

The team moving. Other than that I'll always be a Panthers fan no matter how much they suck. I've always lived in North Carolina so I pull for the Panthers.   

[ChuckWag78]

If the team disolved. If it was no more. If it ceased to be.

I mean in reality, we are still in a WC spot and are 6-4. It sucks we lost and will be bounced early, but we aren’t the Bills. The only way I stop being a fan is if the panthers are no longer in Carolina.

Panthers and Sooners fan, I've accepted that Defense does not exist for the teams I root for.
