Is there any day better to go than others? Also, is Fan Fest free?

Fan Fest is free, any time they go full pads is the best time to go (likely this will be every day) but it is no guarantee. Coach could just go hats and shells to give the guys a break.

The first few days will be the most crowded. Weekends are crowded. Fan Fest is free but you will probably pay a few bucks for parking and drinks. Fanfest is very hot and in the past there is a long line 2hrs beforehand for the best Autograph seats. Don't wait until the last practice, John Fox was famous for canceling the last Spartanburg practice. Ron has hinted he will not but we will see.

So who is attending that brings plenty of items to have the players autograph that I could paypal some cash for a signed mini helmet of some big name players?

Tough being a couple thousand miles away

I don' t even bother trying to get autos @ TC... it's a debacle and it doesn't look good when a 6'6" 300 lb man fights his way through a bunch of kids to try and get something signed, LOL

I was the only guy there last year walking around with a full suit on....hot is a nice way of describing what that place is. Its a practice field down in a valley with little to no breeze.

I will likely try to make it again this year. I would love to get some autographs too, but dont want to look like an idiot fighting through kids....

Woot! My bday is august 7th so I'll probably be taking a half day and going to the 6pm practice that day

Kurb and Salty would love to see you kids again this year along with the many others I met (and crazy stories we heard)

I'll be doing Twitter updates again this year but will probably make it for only 1 (maybe 2 if I'm lucky) bc of.my work schedule

What do you want auto'd, meet me on the 28th and I'll hook you up.

I'm 20 but I look 15 (never thought looking young would help me until I hit the number 40).

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

I will also be doing twitter updates (josh_3_ramsey) and a full write-up for the first day (July 28th).
