In the US, Charlotte pro teams have gone the second-most years without a championship

I sure like it here. A block from Bobcats Arena, PSLs to the Panthers, great rewarding job, family lives in town as well as my best buds.

I'd rather live in a cardboard box in West Charlotte than live in Raleigh though. I lived there for five years and it's nothing but a college town for the most part. I did Durham for a year too and it's nothing but a hippy filled ghetto. Chapel Hill is about as big as my closet, Cary is full of rich Yanks, Greensboro's only highlight is the color in its name, and Wilmington is at the beach. I already have a house at the beach in SC.

WOW, at first I was going to seriously respond to someone preferring charlotte to the triangle, which is the one region of the state keeping us from being a terrible state like TN, but then I saw you use words like yank and hippy. The house in SC just seals the deal, LOL.

Guess there's not enough NASCAR in Raleigh for you, huh? haha Thank god this state as a whole is shifting away from people like you and making us more respectable.

When there's one team for the entire state for each of the major professional sports, and when 2/3 of the teams take the name of the region (not city) they represent, then yes it does.

Agreed. Carolina has won a championship recently. Last I checked Charlotte was in carolina, and is represented by the hurricane franchise.

if you count panthers than you have to count the hurricanes. both are carolina just 2 different cities.

What are you babbling about? Now excuse me, I must go nap on my bed made entirely from $100 bills.

ok....you are completley disregarding the original conversation, formula, and point of this discussion. the thread has a link of a statistic of CITIES that have atleast 1 professional sports team (charlotte has 2) with the longest drought of championships. you cant change the rules to make yourself feel better.

well....you can. but it sounds ridiculous. the city of charlotte is the longest running CITY without a professional team champion based on the original links statistics....which is the base of this entire thread.

exactly why it SHOULDNT count......the statistic is based on championship droughts for CITIES. Thats the entire point.

Raleigh is part of a large metropolitan area. Unless you lived on Hillsborough Street, its kind of hard to say it's just a college town. As for Durham, it may be a hippy filled ghetto, but thats better than just being a regular ghetto like Charlotte.

Let's stop fighting, because it's obviously Wilmington is the best city in NC.
