Have you been to a Charlotte FC game? It’s a party, the opposite of the Panthers games even at half the capacity.  Whoever is running the show for Charlotte FC should be handling Panthers games

The supporter sections for any pro soccer/futbol match blows away any other sport in terms of fan noise and pride. I'd expect nothing less from Charlotte's supporter sections.

Other than a lack of flags, banners, noisemakers... there's nothing stopping a dedicated collection of Panthers fans from doing this in BOA.

Yep ... but unless we're in the Playoffs or go 15-1 you won't see it. So I go back to my original point ...

I was just thinking that's exactly why everyone and their brother has been moving here in droves for the past quarter century. People can't resist the temptation to live in shitty places with nothing to offer.

I lived in CLT for 18 years. I stand by my statement. People are also moving in droves to Texas btw.

Back in the day when the atmosphere was ok fans didn't expect so many frills. They came to watch a game. That seems to have changed and the expectation is for a bunch of frills and distractions. Great for revenue but not so good for the atmosphere.

Everyone loves a winner and the team hasn't been a winner for a good long while now.

The whole gosh dangit small market Mayberry thing isn't accurate anymore. It may have been back when there wasn't a team logo on the field, back when old man Richardson had his row of white rocking chairs out there on Sunday morning, and fans could enjoy some relaxing times and sweet tea before the game, which was an actual thing, but that is in the past.

5 win seasons after 5 win seasons after 5 win seasons, and so on, makes a lot of people stay home.

Two things can be true at once. People are moving in droves to Texas, but not from NC, mostly from Cali and other points west. Charlotte is still growing rapidly, as evidenced by the breakneck pace of continued development. Your subjective opinion is you don't care for it, that's fine, move somewhere you do like, which sounds like you did. The evidence does not support the notion most people agree with you about Charlotte however.

Not just supporter section. The whole stadium has a great vibe

You been playing too much TOTK

Freaking FANTASTIC game.  Im 42, and don't really game much at all anymore, but I have been playing the poo out of TOTK whenever I can.  I just got all 5 sages and am now on the hunt for the Master Sword.  Then its off to defeat that dastardly Gannondorf once and for all (or at least until the next Zelda game)!

Having grown up and lived in Charlotte for 30 something years, and now living in Texas, I can say for 100% surety that Charlotte is WAYYYYYYYYY better.  Texas sucks.

    • I think Indiana will win it all but Miami should give them a much better fight than Oregon did.
    • When I tell people I was at that game, they usually say oh that’s so cool you had the experience. I call it soul crushing. Why? The weeks and months leading up to it were great, the team was fun to watch every week…some weeks the offense was unstoppable and carried the team (saints and giants road games), other times the defense carried the load (jaguars, tampa). Lots of back and forth games against good teams (Seattle and Indy). Good young players on the team, but the veteran leadership was incredible…from Cam, Olsen, Kalil and J Stew to Luke, TD, Norman, Tillman, Jared Allen, CJ. Role players like Fozzy Whitaker, Cotchery (he caught that MFer), Philly brown, Kyle love, AJ Klein, and so on.  The Friday before the nfc championship my wife and I after a few drinks said let’s see what prices look like for flights/accommodations and we got to talking about how much prices would increase if we waited until we found out if we would be in the big game. We said screw it, we are only out $200 if we have to cancel.  Of course we come out and just pulverized the cardinals in front of the most raucous crowd by far we’ve ever had. We had no idea what we would do for game tickets and then found out a neighbor who worked for the team could get us 2 for face value (each employee got two of their own for free, something cool that JR did).  But then the NFL mafia decided that the storyline of manning going out on top like Elway would give them more goodwill than a non traditional QB who didn’t connect with their target demo and the rest is history. I never have and never will watch that game again. I am just hoping I can see them win one in the 2nd half of my life.
