goal is always to move you from your cheap drinking tailgate areas....into a "better place".  Where you can pay someone large sums to drink the same beer you were drinking for cheap. 

Parking garages SUCK for tailgating.  So if I ever go to another Panthers home game, I'll just wear some good hiking/running shoes because I'll be walking a while from a good ole gravel parking lot...if they still exist within a mile radius of the stadium by then.

as an actual fan, I don't give 2 poos about updating to current standards.  Updating to current standards is just about money from people that don't care about actual football.   I care about having a winning team and a good team.  Not much else. 

This.  I'm not driving 3 1/2 hours each way to watch a shitty team no matter how fancy the stadium is.

As a former charter PSL owner (we sold our PSLs about 10 years ago), we went back and attended the Green Bay game last Christmas Eve. We were traveling for the holiday and decided we'd stay in Charlotte and catch the game.

Having not set foot in the stadium for 10 years, it took 30 seconds to realize nothing has changed. The fan experience is no different than it was when we left. Even the same, tired music between plays, the same "let's get fired up, rah, rah" crap. Even Sir Purr's routine is the same.

The best thing about the entire game experience was the fact the Panthers almost won the game against Green Bay- I think it was a bad officiating call that lost the game. Other than that, it was disappointing, to say the least, that nothing has really changed in 10 years. It only reinforced our decision to give up the PSLs was a good one. Don't miss it at all.

Last game I went to was Oct 30 2014.

 

Haven't missed a single game since but Ill never go to the stadium again.

Here's the solution. Then move the team to St. Louis, since their fan base has more people showing up to UFL games than the Panthers have showing up in Charlotte.

Yes genius move. I suppose you're for Atlanta getting an NHL team too ... brilliant.

Everybody knows Charlotte is home of the out of towners. It's why most home games are 50/50.

 

That won't happen in Raleigh. We really take over. If you show up to a game in another jersey be prepared to get punched on. That's how rowdy we are. Charlotte has oldheads who's time has passed them by. Raleigh will get dirty and bring the energy.

 

 

Fug Charlotte!

 

Raleigh>Charlotte fight me!

I'm guessing you didn't see the Ranger fans who bought their way into PNC during the playoffs? Thanks to that Raleigh faithful who listed their tickets Stub Hub or elsewhere.

Yeah I’m all for Raleigh > Charlotte but there are just as many, if not more out-of-towners residing in Raleigh than Charlotte.

      2025 College Football Thread

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I mean, at the time that wouldn't have worked for them. The truth is that when they had the biggest advantage in that conversation was also when Notre Dame was at their peak arrogance and revenue stream creation(prior to the Longhorns Network, etc). Notre Dame was just never going to work out. The biggest thing they could have done is go hard AF and try to give insane deals to the premier Big 12 teams. Even then, most of them were eyeing the Big Ten and SEC. The biggest issue with the ACC was betting wrong. Miami and Virginia Tech ended up being disasters. Basically former college football powerhouses that ended up being afterthoughts by the time they arrived. I mean Miami specifically have literally had a total of three double digit win seasons since they joined the ACC in 2004 and two of those are in the past 2 seasons. Virginia Tech just fell apart at the wrong time, although I think Franklin will bring them back to prominence to an extent. Had we had it to do in hindsight, probably taking teams like TCU, Baylor, etc would have been wiser options than some of the moves into the Northeast and getting Miami.   But, ultimately, fug all this nonsense. It's the insane greed of college football that killed regional rivalries, college basketball and entire storied, REGIONAL conferences. That is the real blame. The thirst for the destruction of all college sports which sits squarely at the feet of the slobbering, ignorant rednecks and hillbillies at the top of the college football sphere.
