Rayzor (and others) -- what kinds of things WOULD you be interested in doing, if you could find them in Spartanburg (or surrounding areas)?

My point is that I'm trying to narrow my focus a bit to provide information on the kinds of things visitors to training camp would be likely looking for outside of camp activities. Is it just food? Is it something like a water park or other contained kid-friendly venue? Is it outdoor activities -- like rock wall climbing, walking/running/biking trails? Is it gardens/arboreta? Is it historic sites/museums? Is it shopping? Is it art, music, theater?

yes.

a contained kid friendly park like frankies would be great. something like falls park or cleveland park in downtown greenville (w/ the greenville zoo) would be ideal. where falls park and cleveland park is located is great because it's downtown. lots of good food and shops.

We obviously don't have Frankies, and we don't have Falls Park.

We do have Hollywild Animal Park, Shipwreck Cove Water park, Cleveland Park (Spartanburg) (but, not the miniature train anymore) ... and we have other things to offer.

You've made it quite clear that you don't have any use for anything in Spartanburg and you prefer Greenville. That's fine, but again, I'm not going to drive people to Greenville.

I would definitely be interested in a guide for activities to do while down there.

hollywild is pretty cool, but it's not quite spartanburg. got what you're saying, but my point is, you still have to go outside of spartanburg.

oh...and no more trains? what happened? that was a pretty neat little attraction.

going against what panthers_lover is trying to do, but i would consider going to greenville if you are going to be down there for any length of time. it isn't that far away.

i'm not trying to sell anyone on anything. i'm just some guy who used to live around there who's giving their opinion on what they would do if they were going down there.

fwiw, my family will be going down there for a couple days and when TC isn't going on, we'll be in greenville.

By Spartanburg, I mean Spartanburg COUNTY, so yes, Hollywild and BMW count.

No more trains because of the accident in March in which one child was killed and dozens were hurt.

So, would you please start your own Greenville thread, because you are becoming a real jerk and are going against what I'm trying to do. Why are you being such a jerk?

sorry. not trying to be a jerk. you asked a question and i answered honestly.

i got nothing against spartanburg. i don't have a dog in this fight.

continue trying to sell your town.

Yet ... over and over and over in the majority of your posts in this thread you have made it clear that you don't like Spartanburg and that you do like Greenville. You answered the question, honestly, but continued to go on and on and on. That's the jerk part.

      Off Season Thread

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
