Was at the game yesterday, noticed a change taking place

I was at the game yesterday (section 516) and I noticed more hostility towards the visiting team's fans than any other Panthers game I've ever attended.

Personally, I like it. I'm not advocating violence or anything like that - but we should not make visiting fans feel welcome.

eh, I disagree. Some good natured smack talk is all fine and good....but I am not a fan of trying to ruin an experience for someone else.

We should discourage opposing fans from just buying up tickets to the game though. It's bad enough so many people around here don't pull for the Panthers.

Where were y'all last night when I was getting blasted for my "12th Man" post? :D

Only thing about discouraging opponents buying tickets is then the stadium will only be 1/4 full instead of 1/2 full. And it would be near empty by the 4th quarter. The money still goes to the franchise. If we don't have it how could we get "quality" people like "Batuka" (never could spell his name.) Collins, Hennings? Nor could we give people like Delhome crap loads of money before letting them go.

:banghead:

I do not advocate being rude, mean, yelling at other teams fans, etc at Panther stadium...... BUT sadly the same is not said for their behavior in our stadium. Game in and game out they DO ruin my experience at the stadium. It seams like most of the fans from the opposing team treat that stadium as if the Panthers are the road team and I am a visition fan. They are the ones how are usually loud, rude, obnoxious, yelling crap, carrying on etc. Its not their house. There is nothing more annoying sitting in the stadium around a bunch of other teams fans who are carrying on when good poo is happening with their team or bad stuff happens to the Panthers. (which sadly has been happening alot these past season :( )

Only the team can change this.

Agreed, and most of what I was referring to fell under the category of good natured smack talking - but there was much more of it going on then I had ever seen before.

I'm all for not letting opposing fans feel welcome in our stadium. I will scream at them like Ric Flair, when the Panthers do good. My favorite saying to them is "Have fun on your drive back! Wooooo!" Everything short of physical violence is fine...unless they assault me. Then we will be tumbling down the stands in that case.

    • Morgan has been advertising a trade on Ebay and Marketplace on FB.  That tells me they are not sold on Walker.  I think you are right--Emmanwori is their target, but after Morgan's rookie year as a GM and XL blabbing what he was told (I would assume that this is one of the reasons you never tell a prospect you will draft him) I am assuming that embarrassed Morgan to some degree--and it may have hurt his credibility.  Remember, he has to negotiate with players, agents, and GMs--so I am guessing that this year, he will be keeping it close to the vest.  I do not understand the Panthers skipping a pro day and then drafting a player when it was right down I 85.  It don't smell none to good.  I think it makes more sense that they have discounted both players.  About the Walker rumor--they have looked at him twice, I believe.  Fuel for the fire. His dad coached at Catawba as an assistant, Coastal Carolina, and got the head coach job at Catawba--a local boy, and the Panthers have a history of drafting local players recently (Ickey, Horn, for example).  If one or two people get on that train, it is often repeated and whipped into a rumor.  I think they could draft a WR (Golden is my guess).  To me, the empty safety spot is glaring--we did not sign blackmon and he remains unsigned.  Curious.  Morgan's comments about the WR room being good--curious.  And then there is Moton and his knee.   I have heard that we could draft an OT (if BPA) and possibly trade Moton--that was on a Panther podcast.  Did something happen in that development that caused the Panthers to change directions, skipping the UGA pro day?  Hmmmm. I will say this:  I think the Panthers really like Princely.  They would use the draft capital from trading back for the S to move up for the Edge in round 2. We shall see.  But Chris SImms pissed me off when he bashed Walker, but his points were valid--not his assessment.  His comment about overrated was to get clicks.
    • For sure I just think he is Uber talented and teams know it.   If he's there at 57 is a no brainer I just don't think it's going to be an option 
    • Williams would be an Edge for us. We only have Wonnum and Clowney one more year.
