It would be really awesome if land was available to build the new satisfied (whenever the time comes) directly on the North Carolina/South Carolina border. I know theres a spot in Carowinds that you can stand with one foot in NC and the other in SC. It would be awesome to have the state border right on the 50 yard line so theoretically you could score a touchdown in two states during the same game. I know this would never happen just because the area can't support parking, lodging, entertainment like Uptown can.

Every time I tell someone down here about my team, they always respond with the same suggestion.

"Oh, you know what would be cool? If the stadium was on the border! That'd be really cool!"

Then I have to explain to them that it was supposed to be that way but it isn't because of the two state's greed.

Embarrassing to say the least, especially when your trying to represent the Carolinas well.

Yea that would be awesome if in the next 15 years the two states could agree but I don't see it happening. And if they wanted to keep it in the Charlotte area I don't think the land is available because that South Charlotte Fort Mill area is growing like crap.

A lot of people don't know that the Panthers logo is the shape of NC/SC either I had to actually pull up a map to prove it once.

Sc is a state?

Oh no you di'int.

The state you live in still has a confederate symbol on the state flag. That will play hell when you are trying to get your splinter cell off the ground. How is your fundraising coming along btw?

      Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways.

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
