How is the support for the Panthers in the Carolinas changing?

It's not actually.  The team is naturally getting more support over time, too. Because people like me (age 25) have grown up with the Panthers.  We now buy jerseys and tickets and reproduce.

The success obviously matters too, but it's not all bandwagoners in Panther nation anymore.

 

This guy has hit the nail on the head. We are basically still a 1st generation team. When the kids who have grown up Panther fans start bringing their kids, things will look a whole bunch better. It just takes time for a fan base to grow.

 

In another 10 years, when these  kids continue to show up and start bringing their kids, it will be harder and harder to opposing fans to get tickets.

 

As been said. Most of the older fans were fans of another team when we got the Panthers. I was a life-long Lions fan. Some of those fans still root for their old team, some, like me, are Panther 1st old team 2nd.

 

I realize that patience isn't big nowadays. Everyone wants it now. But building a solid fan base from scratch, especially when a lot of fans already had a team, takes time. Just relax and enjoy the ride. Cuz we all see how exciting this place has become.

Its 2015. Theres a whole new generation of Panther fans that has been the Carolinas team ever since they were born. We now have Panther Cubs being born around the south east. 

Plus technology is way better from 2002.. example MNF. The stadium looked awesome, the colors, the light banners, the sound. Real cool poo.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
