Try to find shade.  That Charlotte sun is BEAMING!  Sat in the non-shaded side of the 100s against the Bengals one year.  My son was shirtless before the end of the 1st quarter.  I typically sit near the back of 231 in the shade, but I'd much rather be midfield somewhere.

Also, maybe not be a risk you want to take.. but I've had pretty good luck buying tix right before walking it.  Sat in club level pretty affordably in Luke's last game.

Best seat: my living room.

Only ever been to one game (2005 opener vs. the Saints) and it was a miserable experience. Heat, sunburn from hell, overpriced food/drinks, and almost got in a fight with some drunk guy over a misunderstanding about tipping one of the stadium vendors.

Nevermind that we lost the game and that the tiny stadium seats are a (literal) pain in the ass for larger folks like myself.

Ever since then the appeal of the in-person "gameday experience" has been lost on me. Probably doesn't help that I came home to the coast to a hurricane warning with 24 hours to prepare.

What a time 😖

Trying to find seats to take my grandson. Can anyone help? Is upper level row one good seats or are they nosebleeds? Hard to find a block of 3 tickets. 

It’s all about what you’re comfortable with.  Row 1 up top would be a fantastic spot for the grandkids.
 

Upper level

Pros: All-22 view, fun fans

Cons: Stairs can be a bit much, longer walks to concessions.

Lower lever

Pros: Better amenities, closer to the field, fewer stairs

Cons: $$$, end zone seats limit views, more business-casual than fan pit.

This might help you

one thing is certain you really don’t want to be on the sun side during sept to mid October. You will fry 

the shade is on the Panthers side of the field. I have tickets in 342 and I’m covered all season long but I’m up near the big windows protected by the overhang 

But not all seats on that side are covered.  Just take that situation indoors consideration 

good luck

Is section 545 seats 16, 17, 18 in the shade?

I’m not really sure because of  how the stadium curves vs how the sun moves in the fall 

if it’s on the home team side, same side as my section, it might not be directly beating down on you.  If it is in the sun, wear a hat, lots of sun screen and plenty of water.  Of course it may be cloudy so it won’t  matter.

First few rows of the upper deck aren't nosebleeds at all. I actually prefer the upper deck, better view of the whole field and it has more of a working class feel which makes it rowdier up there lmao. I'd almost suggest two or three rows up though. Pending on how old your grandson is, I swear I feel like some of the first few rows might have some sort of gate or barrier that I could see it being difficult to see over if you're super short. Maybe I'm dreaming this my PSL's are on row 23 so idk.

      Wonder if we draft a RB. Seems like a lot of eggs in Brooks’ basket right now.  And the OL, no kidding. If that running game goes to hell with what we have at QB, you can forget competing. It is so much more important than sticking another wideout on the field. Take your wideout later.

      2026 Win predictions from DraftKings

      By strato · Posted

      I have lots of different thoughts on it. This argument, the primary thing is I don’t like seeing him or anyone, being convicted on hearsay and/or pure speculation. Which some are doing.  I don’t care That much about defending Morgan as I do about the criticism being fair minded.    You sort of assert that Dan was just a yes man. I don’t think we know if he ever pushed back against Fitterer but I have this instinct thing that needs me to satisfy the question of: if Tepper was so down on a Fitterer as to fire him, why in the world would he hire his carbon copy? I guess maybe he wanted a yes man.Like I said, lots of different thoughts.     I am just not gonna judge him that harshly based only on speculation. I am sticking with what he has done starting when he was hired as GM. Maybe I am more lenient because the first season for him and Canales, I gave both a pass. Said I would judge them after the first year. Stuck to it. If you can get to the reality that neither were ready for the job and say okay give them a year get their feet wet, it looks a lot better.    And we are not bound to Bryce yet. Yes, for yet another fuging year he can probably marginally improve and slide by like he has been doing. But if they add even more people and he regresses? I think we could see some relief.    The QB room? As I understand it, Pickett was Canales’ choice. If we need to blame people for poo. In a sense, he is very Bryce like. So makes a good plug in. I get that a little bit. We still have the draft. If they do better than Jake Plummer or Hooker I’ll know they are trying.
