Panther Fanbase number 10

Recommended Posts

We (The Emory Marketing Analytics Center and Fanalytics Podcast) pay special attention to the NFL because it showcases important lessons about consumer passion (fandom), and we can illustrate the power of analytics for sports and marketing.

 

Guys, this is about marketability. Don't lose sight of that. This isn't a ranking of how hardcore the fanbases are.

Lol Bills ranked 27th? I’ve seen those fans almost kill themselves over finally reaching the playoffs, while we have more fans of the opposite team in the stadium than us. 2015 was absolutely magical but the stadium has been a shell of itself since.

bills may have the best fans, 27th is a pure joke.

More or less, but they're not exactly framing it that way.

"It’s a look at the strength of fandom as of the end of the 2022 season. Since fandom is created over many seasons or even generations, this is a look into the past. The QB analysis is a look into the future. QBs are the overwhelming key to winning in the NFL, and winning is what ultimately builds fandom."

Just a weird approach.

You have to read through all their nonsense. It's basically about marketability.

I'm not disagreeing with you here. It would have been easier, but less clickbaity, if they just came out and said that instead of trying to convolute their way to equating some weird analysis of spend/prices and social media presence to somehow prove that a team has a better 'fandom' because of it.

Yeah, the intro stuff is very cringey.

Yeah, anything purporting to rank fan loyalty with Carolina ranked higher over KC and Buffalo, let alone any of the other teams, is just silly. Given their methodology, Carolina's ranking is probably propped up by them having PSL's for longer than anyone else (guaranteed revenue, people paying higher prices) and having Cam and Luke for the past decade.

That's more likely than not. I'll take that. A W is a W.

    • Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways. 
    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
