Something to distract you before the game tomorrow...

While making my way around a certain large collection of amusement parks that have a bit of a fascination with five foot tall talking mice located near Orlando, Florida, I thought it would be fun to count the different number of people I saw wearing gear for different NFL teams. In between drinking, riding rides, buying things, and acting like a five year old I figured this was a good way to pass the time walking around.

Won't bore you with all the numbers, but I did see 23 people not including myself wearing some Panthers stuff. This would put them at number five on my list, behind the Steelers (of course), the Cowboys (who knew?), the Dolphins (gee, Florida, who'da guessed?), and the Patriots (brainwashed, all of em).

Found it interesting. Apparently, I picked the one week that everyone from NC was visiting the house of mouse.

I read somewhere that Disney World ran out of Mickey Mouse costumes so they bought a bunch of Peppers jerseys.

They were looking for a big cuddly action figure who would never in good consience hit someone to temporarily fill in for Mickey.

Cute. Cute joke.

Well, like I said in a post earlier this year, I don't see many people in the Triangle wearing Panthers gear at all. It's somewhat disconcerting when I think about it. I see more Steelers, Cowboys, and of course Redskins fans here than Panthers fans. Damn, you see more Panthers fans on one trip to DW than I see all frickin' year around here (at least half a year). It's good for me personally because I can pick up Panthers gear on clearance, like the "$23" dollar cap that I bought for three dollars last week.

Nothing screams sophistication like wearing football gear to anywhere other than the game.

I see a lot of it in the Triad, more than any other NFL team. Although not as much as I see of Wake, NCSU or Duke/UNC (choke puke ughhh ).

Found a Delhomme jersey in an outlet mall in St. Augustine for $30 compared to the Smith and D-Will jerseys in the same shop for $90. Also bought a Washington Nationals t-shirt for $3 for sh*ts and giggles.

He really needs to fire his agent just for not trying to cash in on DTV endorsement deal. BIG time missed opportunity.

I heard the mouse charges 100 a head to get in

You ain't shoppin' right then, brotha. $600 got me five days, six nights worth of food, tickets, and a hotel room for two people. So that evens out to about $120 a day for me and my wife combined, $60 apeice.

Kind of off the subject, but Rugged Warehouse had a rack of NFL jersey's for 16.99. Of course they didn't have any Panthers players, but they did have Peterson, Crabtree, Sanchez, Megatron, Stafford and some others. I didn't look that hard when I realized that they didn't have any Panthers players.

Now that's mean, true, but mean.
