Denver will be my first ever Panthers game...

I grew up in Wilson, and have loved the Panthers since day-one. However, I've never made it to Charlotte for a game. I usually blow all of my football money on UT games every year. Anyway, I've got a buddy who is from Denver, and we'll be coming in from Knoxville to see the game this weekend.

I'm just looking for a few tips on where to park and possibly tailgate (not too expensive), and any other gameday tips you all might have. I should be getting into town around 2pm, so...take it from there experts.

My seats aren't too great...they are in section 530, on row 19...but still I can't wait!!

Thanks.

I've sat all over the stadium. There's no bad seats, but upper 500's toward the end zone are the worst of the lot. Still good seats for the price. To park, go into town. There's some good parking decks for less than 20 bucks and an easy walk to the stadium. There is only one tailgate to go to and that is the Huddle. There will be a banner near 3rd street. If you go to Poplar and 3rd, turn east and they are just a couple of tailgaters up the street. There are some excellent people at that party. Good food, good fellowship, Cooter gets a little drunk once in awhile. For that matter so does Zod, Scrum, Liver, Vampi, Cosmo, MPF, well just about everyone. Ha! No it's not that bad. It is a respectful gathering and I would take my grandkids to it. Everyone has fun and gets loud about their Panthers, but will be respectful. Drop a good bill in the Toys for Tots can, as that is the only requirement to tailgate there. The food is free as well as soft drinks. Bring your own alcohol and you're responsible for your actions. I want be able to make the game so hug Zod for me and tell him I said he's a good photographer and reporter. Leave Cosmo, Vampi, Panthergal, well, all the ladies alone because they're mine. Have a good time and enjoy the game.:hurray:

I have sat in the upperdeck and lower deck on both sides and in the 200 section in the endzone, but never in the upper deck in the endzone, but they are right, there really aren't any "bad" seats in the place.

The endzone is good, just different... you can see the plays developing better from there I think.

My first game was the Saints in October. . . We were in section 522, row 28. The view was pretty good -- much better than I'd expected. But climbing all those stairs was something. I was disappointed there was no vendor selling beer up in the seats. So buy a couple beers at a time down in the concession area or alternate trips with someone.

    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel. 
    • Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
