Carolina Panthers Fan Fest Information

[Zod]

It is that time again ladies and gents! Time for the more casual Carolina Panthers fans to head to Bank of America Stadium and get a sneak peek of the 2013 Panthers.This Saturday you can head down to the stadium, partake in fun activities and watch a full practice and mini scrimmage for free inside of Bank of America Stadium. It really is a great deal for die hard Panthers fans.

Here are a few tips that you won't find on the Panthers Official Page:

 

- Autographs are signed after practice. The players roam the field signing whatever fans bring along the first row of the stadium. Every year, the home side of the stadium gets more attention, the closer to the home locker room entrance the better. Get there early to grab a great first row seat.

 

- If you are not interested in autographs, get there early for the shaded seats. It will be extremely hot sitting out in the sun, many fans don't make it to the end of practice due to this rookie mistake. Grab a beer, find some shade, and you are golden.

 

- Bring a camera. Most folks will never be able to sit in a first row seat at Bank of America Stadium. You will have an excellent view, especially from the west end zone seats. The Panthers typically run a mini scrimmage that direction. Hopefully, the offense sees a good bit of end zone action.

 

- Be sure to get there early for appearances by the Topcats and Sir Purr out near the north stadium entrance.

 

- Fan Fest is very family friendly. It is a perfect time to gauge how your little ones will do at an actual game if you are on the fence about bringing them. Fan Fest is a great way to test their football attention span without spending a dime.

Thanks Zod! We plan on heading their this weekend. This will be the first time making an appearance there for me. Might hit up a local bar by the stadium for a beer and food before time. What time do you think is best to be at the stadium by?
