New awesome Luke Kuechly mural up in Charlotte

[Mr Mojo Risin]

That is pretty cool. If only we were gearing up to watch him again this season. Sucks. But im glad he got to leave on his own terms the concussions were getting scary there for awhile

Makes me think of when downtown, in the early 90's, they had 3 or 4 Hornets players painted on the side of a building...  It was huge mural....

This is off topic, but I miss the naive days when there seemed to be hope for a decent Hornets franchise. Such a great energy early on.

Yep, I was down there.  That was back when after 7PM there were tumbleweeds rolling down Tryon every night. Nothing down there AT ALL. But for that weekend they fabbed up a fully operational Fat Tuesdays on the fly and there were these weird little bars in office spaces everywhere.  Security low- fake ID dream.  Pretty great weekend.  I have heard more than one person say that weekend largely ignited the downtown revitalization.  Who knows?  It took off hard in the mid to late 90's and has yet to slow down.

 

I remember on like the 2nd day driving down there having to park like a block and a half away from the epicenter of the entire event and being pissed.  There literally was nothing going on there then.  Hard to believe really.

That's some amazing work.

Kudos to a very talented artist.

Yeah cool. I was in college and a bunch of us drove down cause there was nothing to do in Davidson or Lake Norman in 1994. And like you said people actually hanging out uptown on a weekday was a novelty. Seemed fun at the time.

My band plays brickyard a lot. Awesome spot if you like massive crowds of people. Reminds me of a frat house. I can’t wait to see this next time I’m there. Artist did an awesome job. Old hulk font too. Badass 

[Move the Panthers to Raleigh]

Too sweet

[Shotgun]

Thats the coolest fuggin thing Ive ever seen!

[KatsAzz]

That is a great Mural. Tepper should hire that artist to create some more Murals  that feature different players.
