How will the lockout affect our fanbase?

[Lumps]

Just wondering what you guys think. Will you even see panther colors on anyone come Christmas time next year? How are these rookies going to sell any jerseys I don't know. DO you consider this a cleaning out of bandwagoners? It is hard to see any bandwagoner stay after a delhomme meltdown season, a 2-4 season and then a skipped season. Or do you suppose that perhaps there will be even more fans from the lack of football? Will a lockout actually produce an integrated result in even more fans just to satisfy the itch?

This thing will get resolved and you won't even remember it happened this time next year

I think the true Panthers fanbase will be fine. "Bandwagoners" go with whoever is winning at the time, so they will only be around when the Panthers start winning again.

I think we have the most loyal fanbase in the NFL.

If theres a lockout it really depends on who we draft. If we draft the right guy then I'll still buy his jersey, lock out or not.

fanbase not affected at all if no games are missed.

If a full season is missed then it will have a big effect.

Bandwagon fans? The whole NFL could get locked out for a season. What team will they go to that will be playing? If they say "To hell with the NFL." fine f**k'em, didn't need them anyways.
