After decades of being a local family-owned joint - last year, the place that's been super-friendly to us local Panthers fans near Perimeter Mall was sold to new ownership.

So I just poked my head into the place to see if they'll be as warm and welcoming to us taking over that front TV spot like we've been doing.

The response? "We're no longer a Carolina Panthers bar."

So that begs a question: where do y'all want to go now to watch the games?

Do we go to that bar anyway and say "screw it", or do we find a new place? If it helps, I drove over to one of their other locations that used to be Panther-friendly, and the staff there said, "sure!!! Come on by and we'll probably even throw the game up on one of the two giant projector screens; you might not get sound, but we'll get the game on for you somewhere - we've got plenty of TVs here."

Unless you guys have better suggestions and location scouting reports.

take that poo over.. coordinate on here and social media.. fug the falcons

The bitch about it is that the old place (multiple locations) was really more of a locals place where everybody knew each other, the bartenders bought rounds of drinks, the owner came by to say "hi", the waitstaff knew our regular orders, there was good-natured ribbing between the different fanbases that called the place home (one guy: "Ladies and Gentlemen, the NEW YORK fugIN' GIANTS!" // the entire rest of the bar: "Shut up, Charles").

With new ownership? Not so much. You can't get that at Generic Sports Bar

Yeah - we saw that was coming a little at the end of last season when the new owners took over w/ the new menu in Nov/Dec-ish.

I'm going to try the Spalding location for today until we figure out future weeks.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      It's actually interesting you mention Richardson because I've seen it suggested here Bryce will have 500 or more rushing yards and 5-10 rushing touchdowns this year. And if big Anthony Richardson can get hurt carrying the rock what's that tell you about the practicality of thinking Bryce won't?

      I mean, I get why the media and some NFL and Carolina fans are saying that we don't have a real chance, but as many Huddlers should know, we won't know what we really have in this team until probably late September or early October at the earliest. And I'm not trying to be a homer, I'm just looking at things historically. Obviously I'm also looking at Bryce's "palatable" improvement the last half of last season (including being the catalyst for hanging with and nearly beating the Super Bowl participants), and the new additions that we've acquired overall. I'm also looking at the beginnings of a culture change--even if perceptibly subtle--to some degree indeed may take a foothold if things start falling the right way. But, overall, I'm still cognizant of the realization that things could just go south and that perhaps that Bryce could revert and flop, or that D & D (Dan and Dave) are not the answer, but I still am not ready to say "we're far away." Hell we could be close, albeit with growing pains, but even if we're on the course to bring legit in 2026, then guys like Ramsey would be welcome additions this season. That's just my take on it. I don't think we'll know that we're far away until some point in the season. If we can compete in the South...who knows?

      You guys remember when the narrative on here was that Bryce would be chronically injured in the NFL due to his size and Anthony Richardson would be super durable due to his? You remember when the narrative was that Bryce was physically incapable of throwing a ball further than 20 yards in the NFL? You remember “I’ll stop complaining when he throws for more than 200 yards and looks like an NFL quarterback”? You remember when 60 sacks was his fault and not the offensive line, slow WRs, and terrible scheme? Pepperidge Farm remembers. It will always be something for some people. Whatever insanity they come up with will be quickly dropped to move on to the next thing. Bryce could have an MVP Super Bowl winning season and they would complain that we can’t run the tush push with him. It will always be something.
