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.

      Dan Morgan on Rich Eisen show

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      I’ve turned from a staunch detractor to him now having my 100% support. 1. He turned the worst o line in the league in to a top 10 unit in 1 offseason. Incredible.  2. Contracts to Horn and Hubbard. Reward your ride or die homegrown talent. Neither contract was way out of line for market value.  3. All of the talent he has added are intelligent, high floor types who love competing.  4. He understands that an org lives and dies off of the draft. This was the very first draft that I can remember since… ever where the franchise didn’t make a boneheaded trade and/or waste a high pick on a project tweener. No. It was Tepper sitting by almost completely mum, watching Dan orchestrate Dan’s draft…. picking intelligent high floor dudes from big name schools who showed up to play every Saturday and loved competing. It just felt right.  5. He has shown no reservation in cutting bait on guys that he sees as not having what it takes. This is really big one. It’s what the good teams do. Without it, you get the ‘coach’s guys’. Complacency. Stagnation. All these dudes needs to watch their backs.  I see him building a young core who have displayed NFL level ability. For the first time in a really long time it feels like the captain of the ship actually knows what he is doing.

      Jake Guentzel was a pretty elite  player and he fit us very well. And we’ve only had two offensive elite forwards under Rod. That’s Jake and Miko. Sample size is pretty small and I feel like your arguments biased. We are going to get an elite player or two In the off-season, we can be the judge of that this time next year.

      Canales Addresses CB position

      Defense is overall bottom 5 without a doubt.  We literally do no have any depth on any position for the defense.  We are once again a couple of injuries away from being complete garbage again.   I assume next draft will be defense heavy.
