So who is renewing their season seats

I still say the tag line "Take your Seat for Lifetime of NFL Excitement" is false advertising. It insinuates your lifetime, but really refers to the lifetime of the stadium.

When its time to build a new stadium, we're gonna have to pony up and pay for PSL's all over again. Hopefully that won't be for another 20 years.

This may be the last year I renew my season tickets. The stadium rules keep getting more lame (stricter) to the point that the fun is almost gone attending the games. If Richardson tightens the noose yet again this season, I'm selling my PSLs in 2011. I feel like I'm at a Sunday school event rather than a Sunday NFL game more and more each season.

The sad part is, I'm in a cool section too. I feel sorry for those in sections where they are surrounded by Richardson-like minded people in regards to how to "appropriately" watch a game in the NFL--namely at BOA Stadium.

Yeah I guess I would have to go that rout if I do move down there. Crazy prices.

FWIW many of those prices are well above what it cost when the original owners bought them which is why you can often get a deal from folks just looking to get back their original investment.

If your section is so cool then why do you feel like you are at a Sunday School event. I have never been asked to sit down and I stand every third down. I even enjoy hecking opposing fans without a problem. People seem fine up in the cheap seats.

What, exactly, are you not able to do that you wanted to do?

Sections are big, but the majority of folks immediately around me are cool. A couple of rows down a PSL owner sells his/her seats every week and it seems that there's always kids there. As soon as you get loud or say even a "clean" cuss word like damn (I never drop the f-bomb) people give you the evil-eye.

What I meant by other sections is, I wasn't always a PSL holder and I have sat all over that stadium and mostly people heckle you for standing, being loud or ribbing opposing fans--yes Panthers "fans".

This whole thing about being lectured via the big screen by the Cheif of Police and a bunch of kids about how to appropriately watch the game is absurd. Texting security crossed the line with me. If someone is being that big of a neusance, then they can go get security. I feel that it is too easy to call secuirty on people trying to have fun because some scrooge thinks you are being overly loud or some kid thinks it would be neat to call security someone.

No it hasn't happened to me (yet), but I could see how a REAL fan might be getting into a tight game and then being "tattled" on for someone that should be watching the game at home (they wouldn't be bothered at home).

Again, the majority of my immediate section is cool, but for some: yelling, i.e. "That's a horrible call ref" or standing (not me, those below the rotating seats), non-vulgar cuss words like "what in the hell call was that Davidson" or ribbing opposing guests --some think a fight may break out.

Before I got my PSLs, some sections I sat in were a lot worse than others. Club seats are horrible for true fans, from my experience. It seems on a yearly basis now...organizationally--not necessarily the fans themselves, are getting more strict about stuff like that. I can handle my own with a whiney "fan", not a problem, but now all they have to do is text security and you can be ejected from the game is total BS.

Yes, all someone has to do is text security and you can be tossed from the game. Who will security believe you or the person texting them? Richardson has the stadium announce at the start of each game in a LONG drawn-out announcement about this and in the corner displays, the security text message and number is up all game long. Basically it says " Are you annoyed by someone? Text security at ---------.

^^^^ This does suck, and I am against that. However, I think Roger Goodell is behind this and this is something that is happening at other stadiums around the league. I could swear I saw the same message on the score board druing the Giants/Panthers game at Giants Stadium.
