And the OP’s family has paid tenfold what you are paying and they’ve made the conscientious decision that they aren’t going to do it anymore.

I pray that you aren’t suggesting that the OP’S family should have to pay more money to watch the poo show that is the Panthers because they have more money. If that’s the case, we’re approaching some looney tunes poo.

You killin me with this day one stuff.. you act like I/we haven’t suffered and pay too!! Grandpa should be making money if he’s been  a PSL owner since day one

A couple of bad seasons with this fan base and they're all selling PSLs and donning their 'second' team jerseys again. 

But in the real world what you describe does not happen. 

PSL’s are incredibly sticky and over 50% are owned by folks who have been there since inception.  

Stop with the #fakenews pal…

Hunch:  OP’s Dad is 74, retired, kids are gone…he’s selling because he’s aged out and the tix just don’t serve the purpose they once did — lifestyle changes drive 99% of PSL sales…

For me it’s less about leaving the Panthers as much as it is leaving football. I’ve been a fan 25+ years since I was a kid, the Panthers are the only team I’ve known. I used to go to training camp at Wofford and get player signatures on Krispy Kreme napkins. I used to obsess over everything football, to this day I could tell you the majority of info of every player (school, position, draft spot) of anyone drafted before the 6th round from 2005-2020. That being said my love of the game is dead. I haven’t watched a game since week 5 and can honestly say I’ve been the happiest I’ve been in years. I really hope it brings joy to you guys but it’s just not the same.

You look at the extreme examples - Detroit, Cleveland, Oakland etc. Bad teams with rabid fan bases.

To be fair, it's been 4 bad seasons consecutively and next year isn't likely to be any better.

I bought tickets to go to the Panthers - Patriots game when they went on sale in May. Wife is from Massachusetts and a big Pats fan. We were planning to fly up from Texas for the game. 

After I saw what kind of team the Panthers were fielding by that point in the season I said F*CK THAT and sold those tickets for a loss. So glad we didn’t go. 

If Central Texas gets an NFL franchise in my lifetime, I don’t think I’ll be around these parts anymore.

    • 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. 
    • Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise
    • Maybe faked was too strong of a word.  "Milked" may be the better way to call it.
