On stadium changes

Recommended Posts

PSL owner since 2011 (thanks Jimmy) but first game since 2019. Observations of changes:

- geez they threw up skyscrapers fast. It's a different view. This was punctuated by the flyover taking a flight pattern over the stadium that it never had.

- was JJR BBQ owned by Jerry Richardson? Because while that was some of the best bbq I've eaten.. the replacement Carolina BBQ is nasty slop.

- there was no Keep Pounding chant. Not once. Nada. Very strange thing to take away. I thought for a moment it was a COVID thing (not prompting you to scream and spray cooties) but they still do the GET LOUDER and Stand up and Shout that everyone ignores. This was a very bad decision to quit prompting the chant.

- I don't get the end zone fancy seats. No one was in them Sunday other than a couple Jets fans. End zone seats.. especially ground level aren't good seats anyway. And taking away the experience of handing a TD ball to a kid in the stands in the end zone seems like a sad thing to me.

-no more purrcussion section on the field. Maybe Covid related. This also needs to come back.

Summer good changes.. but some I consider bad as well. But I'm glad to be back!

Completely agree.  I've sat virtually everywhere at one time or another but those seats seem terrible.  No way you can see the opposite end of the field at all from that low.

I love midfield uppers in the lowest rows.  You can see the plays developing in ways you won't see on tv.

This is super weak. "Keep Pounding" is one of the long-standing Panthers traditions that definitely needs to stay.

Nope. They did the drum but no stadium wide chant. Maybe your section got a small one going.. I did see one section trying to get a wave going that didn't work. I was in my seat from noon (which used to be "Phil time" - when they always played In the Air Tonight) until Sweet Caroline.. no chant once.

I don't remember the Keep Pounding chant at the game. The only time I left my seat was half time. It was hot as f@ck I do know that. I like the black panthers with the blue eyes in the endzone but I do wish the black endzones would come back. As far as the field level seats, I think that is more of a soccer things than  anything. I know the entrance at the 50 yard line is a soccer thing. The stadium was not close to full though. Did anyone else see that?

    • Like I said before, I don't get the "only as a UDFA" sentiment, you have to keep following your board. Now if Pavia falls to what amounts to the supplementary UDFA section of the board, that's great, but if he's sitting at the top when you're picking day three (yes, I can't see him being drafted before day three), then you pull the trigger. Rounds 5-7 don't generally provide keepers anyway, you can use them for players that you want to take a closer look at that you may be able to develop.  Pavia may not translate to the pros. Nobody would bet anything of value on it. But, he was highly productive in college due to his play extension abilities, "body torque" mechanics on short and intermediate throws, and good accuracy on said throws. And, he has that dawg in him to be sure.  All that being said, Drew Allar will probably be able to be had on day three, and if it comes down to it--due to nothing but my prejudice against short, weak-armed QBs--I'd pick Allar.
    • Yeah, receivers contracts are crazy, and it's probably not going to change. You almost have to take your swings--keep some picks at WR churning between rounds one through three in order to keep your costs down and give you options at contract time. Creating that value surplus appears to be more important at WR and all the premium positions than getting a non-premium position player who generally are just easier to replace as it pertains to value. The holy grail is to hit on a premium position late, but due to the gradually declining hit rate on days one and two that drops off a cliff day three, you basically have to get lucky. 
    • Very interesting indeed. It did make my head swim more. It said a lot, but it still didn't give any concrete answers. Kinda makes me want to pivot back towards a premium position though...
