Panthers may be winning, but fans still acting like losers

I got one of the unlimited refill cups and filled it with Gatorade..  Then never got a refill cuz the lines were outrageous. So I won't be buying that thing anymore

Stupid thing is they only 2 stations with 5 fountains per 2 sections. That a lot of people for far to few stations.  But at least the concession stands where quicker.  If you could move.

My folks are the type to leave early win or lose to try beat traffic and they raised me as a fan. I can only imagine how common that is with more casual fans. Hornets games are the same so I'm not even sure PSLs are to blame anymore. Charlotte's too chill for its own good.

gee, i wonder why the panthers fanbase, one born of the corporate era of the NFL and located in a part of the country that had pretty much been conquered by the redskins decades earlier, isn't as loud or passionate as a fanbase like the packers, a team that was around pretty much from the start of the league (and was winning championships before world war II) or the steelers who have six super bowls and a massive national fanbase.

i guess it'll always be a mystery

My gf wanted to go down there during halftime to get something to drink.  What a mistake that was

Where exactly are your PSLs? I nearly had a heat stroke today and my flesh is still simmering. Same thing last year with the Texans season opener. It is brutally hot. The crowd did as best as they could, I could barely move when I got home from the heat cooking me the entire day. Give it a break at ridiculing those who spend their hard earned money to attend faithfully each week. Furthermore the team was basically in victory formation under 2 minutes.

Especially up there in the upper decks, its brutal.

I sat next to a PSLer who said only reason he was there was the fact he couldn't sell his tickets(said he was overpricing it based on what i told him i got my ticket for last night).. So that's still a problem.. but the HEAT was ridiculous today.. and due to the score ppl leave to beat the traffic.

The Panthers have been winning a lot lately, but if you watched the fans in the stadium, you'd think they had been watching the Browns for the past two seasons. 

Its terrible really. No one stands and makes noise unless the Jumbotron tells them to. 90% of fans are in their seats at all times. And a lot of spectators still don't know to shut up when the Panthers have the ball.

I took this picture today seconds after the clock hit 0:00. With about 5 minutes left in the game, fans began to pour out of the stadium. The stadium was maybe 30% full at the 2 minute warning. Check out the seats below the Jumbotron in the picture attached.

Honestly, I'd like to say there is hope for a culture change, but that might not be for another decade.

Yeah it was hot as all unholy hell today out there.  I was up in the 500s all the way near the top in row thirty fuging two... hammered drunk with a black jersey on.  Sitting in the clouds close to the sun getting cooked for 4 hours straight.

I stayed until the end and was loud as fug the entire game, but goddamn I couldn't wait to get to our car and was miserable as poo after the game.

I went to a game two years ago, I was the only one standing up in my section the whole game.

Yeah it's getting pretty bad. Not only are other fans not standing, but they will give you crap for standing in front of them. Our normal seats are in the back row of the lower section, with a 3-foot wall behind the seats in front of the handicap accessible row. Best seats in the stadium without being in a box IMO. You can stand, and Russell Wilson's mom doesn't give you crap about it.....about standing anyway.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
