The 10 best things I saw on Sunday at the Panthers game

My 9-month-old dog doesn’t know how to talk, but he’s a huge Panthers fan. He kept pounding all weekend.

(2) Dog House

The Coca-Cola Doghouse brings it. Every game. Loud music, people of all shapes and sizes, endless Bud Lights, unsurpassed Panther love.

(3) Cardinal Prancers

These three large Cardinals fans were prancing around the stadium before the game trying (somewhat successfully) to intimidate Panthers fans. And yeah, the middle one’s shirt reads, “Iron Sharpens Iron,” which you do have to respect. They seemed unstable, and I liked that.

(4) Butts. 

This sign was outside a food truck, and I think it has something to do with barbecue. Doesn’t matter, I liked it.

(5) Feather Guy

This dude was hanging at the Coca-Cola Doghouse before the game. I still don’t know what he was dressed as, but I do know that I freaking loved it.

(6) Fireworks

Go Panthers. Go America. This one still gives me chills.

(7) Hot Cocoa

As Ted has told me numerous times over the years, only the big dogs drink hot chocolate. Last night was cold. So I became a big dog in the second half.

(8) Taking a knee

If Derek Anderson is in the game, things have either gone terribly wrong or outrageously right. In this case, it’s the latter, and the sight of him taking a knee at the end of the 4 Quarter was beautiful.

(9) These guys

Horrible photography by me. Amazing guys. Cam’s the clear league MVP, but Thomas Davis and Luke Kuechly are the heart and soul of the team, not to mention the type of guy you want your daughter to date. TD has my vote for mayor should he ever run. The Cardinals are thankful to have a long break before seeing TD in their backfield again. The single bros on Montford are thankful that they have at least another two weeks before Luke rolls into Southside and shows them the food chain.

(10) Rain. 

The blue and white confetti raining down pretty much sums up the evening.
