Visitor hospitality at our stadium...

I was there. The crowd was actually making more noise for Our third downs than they were for Eagles third downs. Eagles fans were energized, Panthers fans were quiet even when we were ahead.  They had a few “On Your Feet” attempts for Panthers fans. No one stood up!  No one!  
 

Winning changes everything. When we hosted the Steelers, they started off loud, then got very quiet as we pulled further ahead. Yesterday it was the reverse. Don’t blame fans for being fans.

You sound like the guy that tells other Panther fans to sit down when they stand up to make noise for the D on 3rd down. 

F that noise.

I know this might be hard to believe, but there is actually a place somewhere between being a drunk asshole with a rapsheet and born to lose tattooed on his forehead and being some wine and cheese prick who doesn't get football at all and is there for the social scene.

It's called being a reasonable person.

I can support my team AND be louder than you on 3rd down without advocating for asshattery.

Real or not, cities like Philly, Pittsburgh, NYC have an "edge". Charlotte has never had an edge and never will. It's southern hospitality, it's good ol boys, it's country, it's NASCAR, etc. Not to mention it's a banking city where the wine and cheesers far outnumber the blue collar folk ... especially when it comes to ticket purchases. You'll never be Philly Fan or match the sheer insanity of crowds that the Yankees and Red Sox deliver during the Playoffs for example. Just be happy you have a team, love them, and don't worry about who comes into "your house" because your house has a welcome mat.

It’s the easiest game day experience for an opposing fan.  CLT is a hub and it’s a stadium downtown with numerous hotels within walking distance.  Weather from Oct - Dec is balmy relative to a lot of other NFL towns.

      Charlotte drivers…

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
