Don't miss out on our #PayThePick season ticket offer! If we get the #1 draft pick in the lottery, you pay $1 per game!

43 games x$(pick). On average you will pay $100.75 for 43 games ($2.243 per game) =43x(.25(1)+ .215(2) +.177(3)+ .358(4))

You need to call (704) Bobcats for the offer

my tickets were in section 205 row K.

They aren't very good, but Rich Cho is an excellent GM and there are a couple young players with potential.

You will be charged $43(per season ticket) up front with the balance being charged after the lottery.

Lol that is a ridiculous deal. So for the price of a used video game, I could potentially buy a season ticket to see an NBA team in person for 43 games. Wow. If the fix wasn't in on this lotto, I might just do it!

Seriously though, it's something to consider. Can we really be any worse next year?

Tempting, but throw in gas and parking and it becomes more like $10 a game. Not worth it for the Bobcats.

I rode the bus from Plaza-Midwood to any Bobcats games I went to this past year. $2.50 total, plus I could have a few of those tall "brew-from-the-bottom" beers and not have to worry. I'll probably do the same next season.

Ruff did you or anyone else actually take advantage of this deal? I'm tempted to call the Bobcats' office to inquire. I'm assuming it's only for the nosebleeds...but $43 for a season ticket even at only a 1/4 chance is ridiculous no matter where you sit.

The dirt-cheap season tickets are gone.

Now Charlotte Bobcats fans who pounced on a ticket promotion will have to wait to see how cheap they’ll be – and who they’ll get to see when they use them.

The team said Monday that it sold out of a block of season tickets that could be as cheap as $43. They were part of a promotion that began Wednesday, where the per-game price for one of about 500 upper-deck seats will equal the draft pick the team wins in the lottery May 30.

If the Bobcats get the top pick, and presumably draft 6-foot-10, 220-pound Kentucky freshman standout Anthony Davis, the season ticket would be $1 per game, or $43 for the season, including two exhibitions.

By finishing last in the NBA, the Bobcats are guaranteed one of the top four picks on June 28.

If the team falls to the No. 4 pick and takes a less-coveted prospect, the seats will be $4 per game, or $172 for the season.

Each person was able to buy up to four seats, which, because of the price, will not come with some of the normal perks.

Buyers won’t be able to trade in tickets or attend off-the-court season-ticketholder events.

Wow we SOLD OUT QUICK AS HELL. And we didn't have to rebrand or pander to non-fans to do it. Even as the worst team in the league, people in Charlotte jumped all over this.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
