Sometime today... they're gonna be surrounded by black & blue. 

 

Kaep will get off the bus with his beatbydre and that crappy arrogant smirk on his face. hope we wipe it off on sunday.

Yes this is true but it goes a step further, the 25+ crowd is having children old enough to follow the team. My nieces dress up in the jerseys I have bought them and play football in the living room. You have fathers taking their 8 year old boys to the games. We are birthing second generation Panthers fans.

 

I am a second generation Panther fan! i was 4 years old when the team was created and my Dad was an instant fan. it took him until the '03 Super Bowl run to get me interested, and i wasnt an avid follower until the '05 playoff run. I am 22 and on my own now but my Dad left a love for the Panthers in my heart for sure. where are my tissues? haha

The reason for the increased excitement this year versus 08 is all about personality on this team, a dominant defense, and Cam.  Kracken, Smitty, story about TD, etc gets everyone involved.  The defense is sick.  People like Riverboat Ron, though we all agree that we hate Ron Rivera.

 

Oh, and the economy kindof sucked in 2008.  Don't forget that.

I'm in the Bay & saw a few too!!

 

Most likely Raider fans hoping they don't have to listen to Niner fans after a win. I'm used to doing it with UNC.

 

ABC all day.

Ready over here in England too... Twenty five of us are going to a bar Sunday all wearing our panthers jerseys, scarves, and a few flags lol. Whatever happens were beeming with pride

Want pics.  Also..how did you and 25 get to be Panthers fans?  Glad you are.

 

I went to Jason's Deli for lunch and they weren't wearing Panthers' gear.  Total disappointment.  That salad bar and club sandwich didn't taste as good as it normally does. 

 

Should have walked out.

This year reminds me of '03 - very much so.  That's why I really think this year is going to be so special.  Scratching and clawing so many games - it's the same.  And the excitement in the city .... the same.  The main difference is you had the Hope Stout stuff going on then which added to it before.  But this is still good.

 

The Hope Stout story and connection to the Panthers was so inspiring.  You recently helped us remember that, sadly I had forgotten....although can't believe I ever forgot that.  I hope that memory becomes even bigger.  It was so cool that her parents pounded the drum a couple of games ago.  Sam Mills seems to be the centering inspiration now but it seems they should always be linked.  The courage and generosity of both were incredible.

That's so cool for you guys, I might go to the local bar and find myself being surrounded by 9ers fans here...

 

Hell, go panthers!!!!

WANT. 

 

Since they're not dated, whatev, it's highly unlikely the city will dispose of these as they can be re-used.   But still.... WANT.

 

If anyone hears that these are being sold after the season, let me know mmmmmkay?

My eye doctor (at Charlotte Eye Ear Nose and Throat) has an ad out with the slogan "Eyes up Son".

 

Found it.  It was on a Pinterest page for them.
