Any concerns of protests this Sunday?

This question pertains to the area of Charlotte in general on Sunday.  I travel in for games around twice a year, and this week is one of them.  I am worried about protests of any kind.  What say you?  Has the reaction that the area saw last night come to an end, or will it crank back up when crowds are bigger to have more impact?

I was at the Charlotte Knights game last year when BLM protested outside of the stadium.  It was unnerving. I was there with my 9 year old daughter and following the game, they kept us locked in the stadium for 15 minutes or so because some of the protesters were getting violent. They finally got the riot gear out and made a safe exit for us out one entrance. Last thing I needed my kid to see is cops in riot gear at a goddamn baseball game. She was really scared as neither of us knew WTF was going on outside the stadium.

So #1, yes I would expect something, and #2, keep your kids away if they are planned for the day. Take the kids apple picking or something and DVR the game.

I was also in Minneapolis last year when BLM protested at the Twin Cities Marathon. At least they did it the right way. Peacefully and respectful of the athletes (although they planned to actually interfere/stop the race, some smart folks convinced them that would be a really bad idea).  They were out there but they weren't trying to intimidate cops and turn the marathon into a sh it show.

A lot depends on what happens between now and Sunday I think. The police should release the video and be totally transparent.

Not going to happen.  More than one video.  And those videos may be part of a criminal prosecution, asking for a video to be released will fall on deaf ears.  

As for the protests, there shouldn't be anything to worry about.  But if you want to avoid any possible situation, then stay home.

      Kurb is still alive and well.  I’m still friends with him on all of the social media.  He truly is a great man!  That’s my bro!  He always looked out for me since the early days of the huddle.  It definitely makes me sad that he just quit posting here, but that’s life.  He still shares his takes on social media and X, but a lot of the huddle vets just grew tired of this format and the environment, I guess?  It’s a lot of guys that were valuable contributors here that just stopped posting but are still alive and passionate Panthers fans.  Blindsite used to post huge write-ups and was a well-respected poster and then just disappeared.  We had one of these type threads several years ago and he checked back in and explained he just lost the motivation to stay active here.  It was amazing hearing from him again…   I signed up in 04 after coming over from the Charlotte.com boards and been here ever since.  (For those that don’t know - this is Proudiddy - had to change the name very recently due to ‘ol tootsie roll penis and the bad press 😂).  I’m forever thankful for all of you, even those who I haven’t had the greatest history with, I still appreciate yall.  Many have come and gone, both figuratively and literally, and that has put a lot into perspective over the years.  I went from a young, newly married, wide-eyed twenty year-old guy with a baby on the way, to a now forty-two year-old guy, recently divorced and newly re-married guy with my oldest baby now an adult and 5 more kids since.  And what ride it has been!  You guys have been a much bigger part of my life than I really care to acknowledge.😂

      A substack is a new deli item.  It's a layered creation in which the turkey, ham, chicken and liver mush are alternately placed between pancakes.  Lettuce and tomato are between the top two layers of flapjacks.
