Thanks for creating this.  The last time I went to Wofford was mid-week when Jimmy Clausen and new rookie Cam where " competing" for the starting job.

My kids are 3 and 5 years old. Are there events that they can enjoy?

Are there specific days that are better for young children?

I see practices are usually about 2 hours in the morning. Are there events going on during practice?  What about when practice ends, what other events are going on?

What are some best practices for obtaining autographs?  (For the kids, not me of course)

The kids aren't old enough to be Panthers Pals and get on the field yet. That starts at age 6. There is an area the kids can play but you really can't see practice from there. 

Honestly, I wouldn't take really young kids. Way too hot, although it would definitely help you get autographs. 

The best place for autographs is along the fence as close to where the players enter and exit as possible. Those spots fill up early though, both before practice and people even skip a large portion of practice to line up there for the post practice autographs. 

I don't know of any events after or before practice.

Probably a good idea.  I'm not sure what your kids are like, but at 4 my kid was miserable in the blistering heat watching what (I think) is really an event for hardcore fans.

A few simple questions..

I noticed the vast majority of practice times are in the morning according to panthers.com. Does it still feel like the weight of the sun is pushing down on you during that period? Are we allowed to bring some sort of beach umbrella for shade or just tough it out? I don't see anywhere that says they prohibit certain items like the stadium page.

In a word, yes.

By 10 o'clock the hill is in full sun and you want to die. Bring a shade umbrella. Seriously. It is a must have.

Is parking hard to come by? Plenty or packed to the brim? 

 

Thanks

I definitely had an issue when I went.  We arrived not long before start time and had to drive around the local neighborhoods to find a spot.  Might be worth arriving a half hour to hour prior to start to avoid that.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
