Stadium Renovation Plans Announced

[Herbert The Love Bug]

I heard something about the grass being fake and really like a huge video board where each blade of grass lights up. You can automatically change what the endzones look like and any image in the field from a computer. Out with paint, in with technology.

is that new ribbon gonna go over the PSL Owners Mike Mccormack and Sam Mills Tributes?

 

Good point, looks like it will... interesting to see how they handle that?

In order to secure a Super Bowl, I think you'd need to throw a roof on BOA Stadium. Charlotte is still a four-season town, and for better or worse, the League wants the Super Bowl to be in a warm climate or artificial climate. It's funny because ultimately winter towns like Minnesota that have domes are more likely to get a Super Bowl than us!

 

 

Except this year's which is being held in New Jersey kinda removes that prerequisite from the equation.

The panthers are in the money. Sounds like they're making long term plan. What can Cam do for you!

"longest in the NFL"

They have escalators at the Superdome and I was not really that impressed. Nice on the way up, a pain in the ass on the way down. When everyone leaves, they just get backed up. Most weren't even running so you were just walking down the stairs.

I'm all for the escalators however, less traffic for me on the switchbacks on the way out!

I don't understand the need for wifi.  People should be watching the game.  Not playing on the internet.

 

There are long  timeouts.  Nice to be able to check your fantasy team, other scores, or get updated info on an injury.

could someone give me a dry, bland, devoid of political shittiness as possible breakdown of how the funding for this went with the state?

as far as the wifi, if they want to do it like the jets do, it allows people on their smart whatevers to watch exclusive in game highlights, replays, check fantasy, etc. 

 

all part of providing a better "experience" to the customer or whatever.

I go to games. Timeouts aren't long enough imo. And its aggravating to see some fans never put their phone down, never stand up and never cheer once. Like two middle aged women who were on the row in front of me at the jets game, looking at facebook for more than half the game.

Panthers asked state. State said no. State said no to local hotel/rest tax. City council voted 10-0 to use existing convention center funds in exchange for a 6 year tether.

It would be really cool if they would put canopies in to trap sound a little more.

the only renovation I've ever asked for...

I tried.

I noticed in Atlanta they kept up with scores from others games better ... but I never saw one in game stat

 

I think they keep up score fine at Panther stadium, BUT I hear ya about not one in game stat in Atlanta.  I noticed that and said it to my son.  At one point I was wondering what Cam's completion to throws were and was looking all around for something on the scoreboard and noticed there was nothing.  I like to see that stuff, how many tackles the players have, yards running, catches, receiving yards etc. I was surprised none of that was displayed.
