[QUOTE="weeds, post: 383765, member: 39"] Welcome, Happy Panther. Your guys are going through a transitional season. New coach...probably a new system. It's going to be tough to watch as a Panthers' fan -- been there. One thing is for sure though, Panthers fans could be the nicest group of fans that I've come in contact with going back to the '96 NFC Championship Game. Just a great group of folks I met that weekend in Green Bay. Gotta tell ya, back in '08 (maybe)...the Panthers were in Green Bay and there was a guy sitting in the seat in front of my son, me and two of his buddies. He was a solitary guy...all bundled up in maybe 30-degree weather (which is balmy for a November game). Didn't say much...just sat there and froze. As I recall it was one of those games where the Pack seemed to be hell-bent on giving it away and ultimately did - a gift from our special teams and our defense to the Panthers...and once the Panthers scored to get the win, the guy came to life...took off his coat and produced a stuffed Panther -- talk about your "Dead coming to life". Throughout the game, he gave NO indication he was a Panther's fan until the bitter end. That was my cue to start baggin' on him. If he had been sitting there with his Panthers' jersey on the whole game it would have been different...but....he set himself up for the "fair weather fan" schtick. Couldn't resist...invited him back to the parking lot for some post game beer and brats and gave him a lift back to his hotel afterward...thing is...the guy came up from North Carolina alone...on the hopes of scoring a ticket...THAT is a Panthers fan.
