What was your first live Panthers football game?


Fiz

Recommended Posts

Canton Ohio in 1995 for me.

My dad drove me up there to watch some dumb sport named football and all I knew about it was it wasn't Mortal Kombat.

the Panthers beat the Jaguars. I was hooked.

Since then, I've missed fewer than 10 home games.

Man, I wish I had your history with games following the inaugural season Fiz...

MY dad hated sports and was/is a dick, so he didn't support me getting into them at all either as a participant or a fan... (No I don't need a kleenex)

Anyway, my uncle took me to the Bucs game our inaugural year, and we almost won... Was in Death Valley, BUT we were so far up in the nosebleeds I the players looked like I was watching an ant farm... I still loved it though. I still have my Game Program with Brett Maxie on the front, he was one of my favorites.

Haven't been able to go to another one sense then for various reasons. But, I'm happy to admit that I've lost numerous menial, poo jobs I've had for calling out of work to watch every game lol.

If anyone here has PSLs and won't be able to make a game the rest of this season, please let me know! I definitely want to make a game this year, and plan on taking my kids sometime in the next couple of years when they get old enough...

My dad got tickets in '95 and we drove down to Clemson to watch the Bucs play...

We lost. I remember feeling ashamed we lost to a team who wore such god awful jerseys...

Wow, that's cool you were there too. I have to admit I liked the ice cream unis better than these ones... 2 plays that still stick out in my memory to this day - Derrick Moore's 50+ yard run... May have been the biggest play from scrimmage for us to that point. And John Kasay hit the upright on an XPA and I promise you that upright shook for about an hour after he hit it, lol, I'll never forget that.

    • This is huge may not be a trap game but this plays a major part in what they want to do. If we can get some pressure on Sam we know what he does with pressure coming hit and heavy. Also we may be able to take the top off their defense a backup safety trying to stop TMac or Cooker over the top or forcing him to play the backend should allow us to run the ball somewhat effectively. Either they allow some runs or we take some shots and if Bryce and whoever can connect deep we’ll be in business for another big time win against a top notch opponent. Might not be a trap game but health travel game plans all play a major role in each weeks game plan and this week might be leaving our way. We’re missing some replaceable pieces they’re missing key anchors to the offense and defense major difference time to solidly ourselves at one of the top teams in the nfc tomorrow fellas buckle up.
    • Yes.  If I am not mistaken, we need to sign Coker to the ERFA tender and insist that XL spends his spring and summer at a WR camp and not Coon huntin on his four wheeler.  XL was raw when we picked him--which is why I wanted to go another direction--and we are seeing how raw.  He is basically learning a position.     The Panthers will make their move in 2026 to be an NFL powerhouse behind Bryce.  Bryce needs intelligent WRs who catch the ball.  That said, we need a solid #2 to challenge XL and make cutting him easy, if necessary.  A #2 WR (intented to be a #1 by now) with under 400 yards is embarrassing.   On offense, you have to ask, "Where can we get better?"  In my view, #2 WR, TE (although they are improving) and maybe C (again, if we re-sign Mays, he is trending up and at 26, entering his prime--I say stay with him and find competition later in the draft (not good for C).  OL depth maybe?  In other words, XL is a glaring weak spot.
