OK, I'll be attending my first Panthers game on Jan 3rd and am wondering what the parking situation is? Do I need a parking pass? Where can I get a parking pass and which lots are better to park in?

Also, I have seats in row 1 in the end zone and we would like to get into the stadium as early as possible. What time do they actually let fans head in?

Nope, no parking pass. Just park where you like around the stadium. The closer you are, the more expensive. Right near the stadium is $30+ bucks. Drive about 5-6 blocks away and it drops down to $10 or so. There are many, many lots to choose from. Just find a good one with a good tailgate crowd! Just pay the guys (usually with flags and traffic vests) collecting money in the entrance to the lot.

I normally park near the apartments at the corner of West 6th St. and North Smith St. Nice lot, cheap, and easy access to I-77 after the game is done. Love it there. I've parked at many different lots and have never found dumbass Panther fans. Usually it is the idiot encroachers that ruin a lot (coughcoughFALCONSFANScoughcough)

I know I usually get to my seat about an hour before kick-off. I wouldn't worry about getting there as absolutely soon as you can. You have your ticket. No one will take your seat. Not sure of exact hours, but I know the stadium is open at least 1-2 hrs before kickoff, if not even longer than that.

Enjoy the game! (or enjoy watching 2nd stringers from the Saints, possibly...idk.)

there is a parking deck on the right (if your on 3rd street- I THINK ) right before the huddle tailgate parking lot. its an easy walk and only like $15.

Its on the same street as piccassos- right before it on the right (if your driving towards the stadium)

then you can go right across the street, tailgate, party and then go to the game!!!

its close, easy to get out of, and CHEAP

That's where I used to park before I moved to the other side of the stadium.

Excellent, thanks for the positive info on parking guys.

Hey, with ticket prices being cheap this season, how many 'who dats' can I expect to see?

Is the comradery rough with opposing fans?

What are the chances of getting some pre-game autographs from the players while sitting in row 1 in the end zone?

will be a good number of Saints fans....pretty much any NFC South foe brings a good number of opposing fans. Pre game autographs I don't think so much.....maybe a very slight chance if you're at the tunnel when they come off the field after warmups...

      Greg Cosell on Bryce Young

      Bryce has been playing the best ball of his career the last three games IMO. He wasn't the reason we dropped the game in NOLA. Seattle's defense will be his toughest challenge yet this season

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By SOJA · Posted

      I'll be at the game Sunday and up until last year I had a perfect attendance record. Now however I have seen us lose to the Chiefs (last year) and the Bills (this year). So we can no longer rely solely on my ability to pound overpriced beers to propel us to a win.

      I haven't been able to watch Seattle on a dedicated basis but the Seahawks are a much better team by the all accounts: eye test, record and DVOA. Defensively they are sick. Best DVOA in the league first in rushing and second in passing. Offensively their passing game has been on fire this year led by JSN I can easily see this being like the Buffalo game where things just get out of hand for us early, that being said this league really is week to week and Seattle does have the disadvantage of traveling cross country for an early game.  If and big if, the Panthers are able to effectively run the ball and limit the amount of time Seattle's offense has to generate explosive plays we have a path to winning this game.  Seattle fans won't be happy to hear this but bad Darnold is always lurking in the background. He is truly an enigma to root for bc he will have an incredible throw that only a few people can make but then will turn around and throw the most bone headed pick of all time.  I think ultimately we drop this one as ultimately it's human nature to be looking forward to that week 18 game. But man how special would it be to be leaving the stadium on Sunday with a win and a miracle dolphins upset
