Been a fan since the beginning and a die-hard since year two and I'm finally going to be going to my first home game this weekend, can't wait. I'll be flying in Saturday afternoon and staying downtown without a rental car, so I'll just be walking around.

Looking for some suggestions of a place to go Saturday night. I want to find a place with a good selection of beer and a burger and will be able to put the Arizona-Cal game on for me. If it's also a place that will have the UFC fight showing it would be even better.

Also since I have a late flight Sunday I'm looking for a good place to go after the game to watch the late games. Looking for some local suggestions as I know places like BWW would have that, but I've never been to Charlotte and would like to see what you got.

A co-worker of mine has an uncle in Charlotte who suggested I check out Picasso's Dilworth.

As for game day, please tell me what to do. I want to get into the stadium early enough to get some good pictures during warmups and just check the place out, I was thinking somewhere around 11:30-12 for that. But up until then, where do I need to go? Any good tailgates that will welcome in a random Panther fan?

Thanks and if you see someone in an authentic black Biakabutuka jersey, I'm guessing it's me since I kinda doubt anyone else will be wearing that.

Picasso's- awesome. and I love their wings. Personally love the teriyaki ones myself. Yes, they will probably put on the games for you, I have no idea about them putting on the UFC fight, Im sure they would if you asked.

They also have really good pizza and pepperoni rolls. mmmmmmm

You should probably go to the Epicenter or hop on the light rail and go to Vinnies or Mac's. We tailgate right behind the Doghouse off Morehead and we welcome any Panther fans. My wife's half brother and his family all came down from Norfolk VA for their first Panther's game ever last week, and a good time was had by all.:D

Oh... and you're right. No one else will be wearing a Failakabutuka jersery. You might want to bring some cash to buy another one when get to the stadium. You'll hear some snickering if you don't.

Have a Smith jersey and planning on getting a Stewart while down there, but still going to wear the Biakabutuka. He is the reason I'm a panthers fan and for my first home game I wouldn't have it any other way. I think most Panthers fans can agree that he would have been really good if not for all the injuries.

What time does all the tailgating normally start up?

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
