Panthers avoid Blackout

[SauceBoss]

This bothers me. Explain to me how we weren't blacked out at all last year in a horrid 2-14 season, but we get the opportunity of guaranteed victory this weekend, and we were at risk for a blackout? explain that to me PLEASE. Oh, it's the Jaguars stench/curse. They bring blackouts with them everywhere they go. The L.A. Jaguars will be great one day.

There are no guaranteed victories in the NFL bro

Wasn't there someone we drafted that was supposed to put butts in the seats? I can't remember his name right off the top of my head. :confused:

The economy is bad, people don't have enough money to pay and go to an NFL game, especially when NC is 9th in unemployment, and SC is in 3rd.

Willing to blackout the entire home market because 1.6% of the stadium isn't sold out. Sad and pathetic.

A blackout would seriously damage Cam's swag.

I don't blame the economy. I'd just much rather watch the game from my living room, close to my snacks and drinks. Way better than sitting nosebleed and having to walk up and down stairs to still pay an arm and a leg for a dog and a beer.

how so? most teams have an issue where there is a few seats open and they say there might be a blackout but the seats get sold.

we don't have anything close to a history of blackouts occurring but most weeks there are several seats that haven't been sold and so they mention it. when the seats are bought they make that announcement.

nothing new.

much ado about nothing. there was no real threat of a blackout. the seats always get sold.

that's what i always say when people give me grief for preferring to watch the game at home. i'm like, "What? i can see the action better, i get good replays, don't have to listen to crappy music, the beer's cheap, the parking's free, the bathroom is closer, and if i start the game late, i can fast forward through commercials!"

So what exactly do these companies do with the tickets?
