section 522 will be loud and it should be fun... there is already a tailgate announcement circulating from "jack" ...he had the Panther canopy set up, around 30th in line. My husband and I both waited 27 hours, took time off work and made arrangements for our kids to stay with grandma. The winers were utterly ridiculous, the stupidest thing I ever heard and the media pounced on it for a sensational aspect to the story. People came early, jumped in line, got a number to prove it and stuck around till the hero showed up. DeAngelo was impressive (for the 4 seconds I got to see him and speak) He truly looks happy and appreciative.

If someone will post the Huddle Tailgate info when it is set, I will do what I can to make sure it gets to the people who were in line that I know. Btw, I'm the guy in the video near the end talking about being rewarded for being the most dedicated. Can't wait to hang out with all you 522 fans on Sat.!!

And btw, nice board you have here...I am a PanthersFanz vet, but I will being dropping by periodically! :)

Just joined the board here...I'm Matt's brother, the one with the wife that came early Sunday to replace him. I waited for ~35 hours myself...'twas lots of fun and definitely worth the wait. Can't wait to see the game Sat night and cheer with a bunch of other diehards in the nosebleeds!

The complainers were just dumb...they didn't even stick around for the raffle or to meet D Will. True fans? Please. The true fans got there in the top 100.

One note, I actually knew the guy who was #101. Went to high school with him. One person missed roll call on monday, so he got bumped up to #100...and was quite happy.

The guy that got bumped was in a car accident.

How do you get in a car accident waiting in line? I'm sorry for the guy (and hope he wasn't hurt) - but isn't waiting in line what you were supposed to do, not driving in your car?

And kudos to number 101 for sticking it out. Some people might have given up. He didn't and was rewarded.

I kinda chuckled at some of you who waited two days in line, one of them being a workday for most, for tix yet don't want to come down early and tailgate the game on a Saturday.

To the poster who said they wanted the Huddle tailgate info, it's stickied at the top of the page here.

i'm new to the huddle and just wanted to say that this forum was the reason i got my tickets - without the updates (especially from stevesmithowns) we wouldn't have left as early from where we live (abt. 2 hours from monroe) and wouldn't have made it in time to get in line.

i was number 56 and we got there at like 5:30 on sunday night. it was awesome.

thanks to everyone on here for keeping the updates coming and putting the news stories up, even though most of them were totally focused on the people that didn't get tickets.

i think i'm going to stop by the tailgate with my other friends from the line, probably around 5-6.

hey, weren't you sitting next to us under the Panther Canopy for most of the 27 hours with your friend? my husband was #28 and I was #78 (I left and came back and jumped in line while there was still availability)

Jack gave me the tailgate info, i will forward it as soon as I catch up at work from missing Monday :)

I love how everyone is finding everyone after hanging out for 2 days ... did everyone see the news clips? wcnc, wsoc, foxnews and the Charlotte observer? the observer had a great slide show of pics...

Don't just "Stop By The Tailgate".....come on out and party all day long. The food and beer will be flowing from 8AM until kickoff.
