Different Experience

Just got back home from my 1st Panthers game - awesome!  wow, what a different experience than watching on TV.  We sat over the tunnel that the Vikes used.  Was a little disappointed when I realized that - just never knew they entered and exited from across - but never the less it was great.  Did have a whole row of drunk vike fans 2 rows behind us and 1 panther fan that kept screaming at the nearest cheerleader (even though the move around).  My ears are nearly blown and I'm hoarse from yelling.  Many awesome Panther fans around us that act like they've known you forever.  Had a great view of the tackle on the vike fan behind the bench.  Great video of Fun Fun and Cam celebrating the TD.

 

To whom ever sold the tickets we bought - it was money well spent.  Whole day with my son doing what we do every Sunday - just this time in person.  I'm hooked on attending games - just hate the 5 hour drive home afterwards.  Getting from BOA to Salisbury sucks!

Was an epic game. I flew in from Boston this morning and flew back tonight. Getting to and from the stadium and our seats was easy as hell and all around a great game experience. I was in section 110 on the Vikings side and I will say there were a lot of Vikings fans near me there -- doing their weird little "skol" chant while doing some dumb arm movement, it was frankly quite embarrassing to see grown people doing. And there were times during the game where the stadium wasn't all that loud when it should've been, but all around a great game.

Wait, what's this about the tackle of a Vikings fan?

I’m glad you had a great experience man. I wasn’t able to make it today due to a work Christmas Party (I still streamed that ish until we stopped the Vikings on 4th to seal the game). My friends and family look at me crazy when I tell them I’d rather go to the game than sit watching it on tv, but you see why. The atmosphere is generally electric. I don’t care if it’s bitterly cold or hellishly hot (have experienced both). My ass will be in a seat if there’s nothing work related I have to attend (I’m lucky to generally not work on sundays). 

Anyway glad you enjoyed it. Come back again sometime soon!

Took 5 hours total to get from BOA to Goldsboro  NC.  Took 90 minutes just to get to Salisbury - bumper to bumper till there.

Vike fan - yes,  we were in section 137 and a fan from one of the endzone sections jumped down and ran for the Panther sideline - he totally bowled over a female event staff worker and got tackled by the Police just short of where the kickers practice net was.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
