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.

    • I mean, I hear what y'all are saying, but Derrick could have been positive without being negative.  He essentially accused people of not seeing Bryce's improvement because of their desire to not be wrong. He could've kept it about Bryce and the team. For example, he could've said: "Bryce has made strides, and we believe in him. This coming season, his continued improvement will turn a lot of people into believers."  That would've been supportive of his teammate and sent a message to the doubters. That being said, his tact almost summoned and left the door ajar for more skepticism. That's my take anyway. Bryce has improved from the bottom to perhaps skirting the line between the bottom third and mid-third at best...after three seasons. We've all seen it. Yay! In my mind, Bryce has still got a long way to go and a short time to get there, but my expectations are top five--at least top 10--always! Yes, I am a fan, so there's that, but I don't believe it's unreasonable to expect excellence. Hopefully the Panthers FO has the same mindset (and that doesn't even necessarily have anything to do with what we gave up to acquire him). That is the lens I'm looking through. Derrick Brown has his homer glasses on. He just needs to be more diplomatic and thoughtful with his words in my opinion, but I get it that he's a good teammate.
    • I have no doubt the Canes will come out like gangbusters, huge bounce back from game one - my only concern is Freddie, if he lets in a couple of softies and Dobes stays hot we could be in trouble.
