Goodell: Stadium experience needs to be better than home

[Wither]

tooo may ****** commercials when ur at the stadium.

Try changing the channel. Maybe there is something "nice" to look at nearby.

If not, you're screwed.

Topcats are too fugly in person. At least you don't have to look at them on TV all game long. :ack2:

[KatsAzz]

It certainly gets expensive but there is nothing like being at the game.

I can cheer as loud as I want from home but if I get too loud at the stadium there is a chance of being kicked out.

Some part of me thinks this is why Jerry canned his sons and now has someone else running day to day operations. Its a very corporate feel to the crowd at BOA. Hopefully that will change.

Our stadium experience blows in comparison to others around the league!

Yeah, I would have voted pie if there was one. USUALLY the stadium experience is better, but our subdued atmosphere would almost give watching it at home better. If I were a Green Bay or Patriots fan...game experience, hands down, over viewing at home.

Well, that's because a lot of the PSL's are corporate owned, and they give the tickets to clients that may or may not want to see the Panthers play. Look at all of those little tents with the picket fences around the stadium on gameday- those are mostly luxury box seat folk, but it does give an idea that everybody ain't there for the game.

I'm allowed to stand up and cheer at home without some old fat ass behind me telling me to sit down. Home > Stadium.

Yep, to add insult to injury it's usally a scalped ticket purchaser telling PSL owners how to watch the game. THAT is horse sheeet!!!

[Mattiekrome]

Home, all day, any Sunday w/ 1 exception... A make or break game to go to the playoffs

Plain and simple the NFL is pricing alot of there fans out. I had PSL's for 4 years and then eventually got tired of the countless comericals on the jumbotrons instead of replays. And the dumb half-time shows. Basically the in game exp got more expenisive and really didnt get any better.

So instead of throwing down 800 a year on tix (including the ridiculous that is preseason) I just bought a 42 inch HD flat screen and can watch at home without all the hassle. Not to mention when I jump up in excitement there isnt some jackass behind me telling me to sit down. Bc everyone that is at my house will already be on there feet.

Bottom line. This artical is right on. The stadium experience does need to improve.

[Porn Shop Clerk]

I do not feel welcome in my own team's stadium.

And its not worth the hassle at all.

Keep kicking fans out for having a good time, and sooner or later you're left with a half empty stadium.

I find it funny how everyone who wants to make a point about home being better, mentions how big their TV is. lol

I've been to every game the past five seasons and love every second of it. I like being out in the fresh air, my seats are great, no one has told me to sit down, there has rarely been an obnoxious drunk near me, everyone around me has been there the entire time so I know them by name, during commercials I talk with the people I go with, the bathroom is never crowded, and it's a five minute drive from my house.

It makes my week. Well, if we lose it sucks, but I still have a fun time.

just like movies
