[Panther_Brotherhood]

I'm trying to go to the game here in NO next year

TV revenues are huge and if it weren't for our fans watching and every one's fans watching.  I dare say if all we had were the folks that show up on Sunday or game day payroll sure go down.  We all a part of a big wheel.  The need to be a Big Wheel just plays into the paws of Dawgs.  So I'll drink to all of us and hope we become a bigger number by the end of season, we gonna have a lot of Band wagoner's by end of season!!!

Goooo Panthers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You ever stopped by the Huddle TG? We set up in the French Qtr parking lot as well.

 

No. I'm in the very back corner adjacent to the building and tryon. Boo usually stops by every now and then. 

 

I'm going to be honest, it's starting to get over run with more and more people (like my ex GF and her current BF) that I don't really care to see and eat all my sh1t and I'm thinking about finding a new spot. It's like people who I know/knew and their friends just kinda go there now. I mean the more the merrier I suppose but I'm seriously considering breaking off from them and finding a new location. 

 

Two years ago I tailgated with my good friend who is a Falcons fan and all of his family and friends and I brought my Dad out to where he was set up off of Cedar, right up from hartigans. It was a terrible spot. We new someone who had a house across the street so we could go there to use the bathroom. That was the only positive. And they had a keg, too. I was pissed to find out that they had a keg after I already packed a cooler. 

 

years ago, when I was like 21-22, our main spot was the vacant lot up from the Uptown Cabaret. It was an awesome spot but they built that fuging diner there now so we can't use that place anymore. 

 

The French Quarter lot is certainly an awesome place to tailgate. Our TG is still incredible but it's starting to get over run with friends of friends, etc.

I go to 1 or 2 a year. I'm in Raleigh so its not too bad of a trip. I like watching at home too much to want to go to every home game. The atmosphere of being there is somewhat fun, but it is easier to figure out what is going on sometimes when watching on tv. Maybe if the atmosphere for a home game was better I would want to attend. I go to every NC State home game every year and part of the reason I do is because of how great the atmosphere in Carter-Finley is. Much better than Bank of America.

Looking to buy a 2 pack for the Seahawks and Pays games tomorrow.

[lovelett]

I will be at more away games than home games.

Something else I mentioned last year....we got to start winning and being in the playoff hunt. Panthers games are expensive and a very big ordeal when you go out there to tailgate. Beer, food, driving, parking, the ticket, etc.....I don't like heading out to meaningless game in November when the Panthers have basically been out of it for a month and spending $200 just to leave pissed off. I'd rather grill out at the house and scream at my own TV. 

[carolina-chuck]

Will be present at Bank of America Stadium this football season?

There are a lot of people on this board that fight for their team in words here but don't show up to support.

My question to you guys is if you don't come to support the team what's your reasoning?

 

There's been a statistic that says only "2 percent" of football fans actually go to games. 

[carolina-chuck]

When I was a kid, i had always wanted to go to a game and see Steve Smith.

The first time I was there, the atmosphere was really nice but it wasnt what I had hoped for.

Ive been to a couple games and I would have to say that I rather watch it from T.V.

Its much more intense for whatever reason on television to me.

[Miiikey]

Im a little too far to go to S.C but I rep Panthers daily out in SD. Jerseys and hats are a regular occurrence. Will also be in attendance at a difficult Niners game later this year.

[weymouthst]

I live in Maine, yo. I support by drinking a bunch of beer, screaming at my television, defending the Panther's from my douche bag patriot fan friends, buying panther jerseys, and coming to this hole to argue football with you fuggers.

 

When I am not a poor college student and have a career with vacation time, I will come to the stadium to drink beer and yell.

 

Good nuff?

The atmosphere is getting better. Relatively speaking, we are still a young team with a young fan base. 

 

What truly pisses me off is when you head to a game vs the Steelers, Cowboys, Redskins...and there's people there over the age of 26 who have been "fans" their entire life of one of the aforementioned teams and Panther stadium is as close to a "home game" for them that they will ever get.

 

Next time you see some moron walking around in a Roethlisburger jersey, ask him what part of Pittsburgh he's from.

It sounds like Southern Cal has a bigger Panther fanbase than I expected. There's a couple of y'all on here. It seems like there's more of y'all than there are in South Carolina. Another reason to rebrand the team as the Charlotte Panthers and drop South/North Carolina. The further you get away from the Charlotte metro area, the less there are Panther fans.

When I was a young man, and had abundant energy, games we great. College or Pros, I loved the atmosphere. Nowadays, it is just too damm easy to sit in front of the tv and be comfortable.

 

I live the same distance from BOA as I did the Silverdome. Weird fact.

 

That, and the wife hates football. So it is much easier to annoy her at home, where she cannot avoid them, then to let her off the hook by leaving to watch the games.

 

I do however love TC. There is just something about watching the practices. Analyzing players and trying to get a feel for the season.  Plus, I can ride my bike to Wofford. Good exercise and Pro football.

 

Fans don't have to attend the game to be a fan.

 

And GOOOOOO  CATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
