OT: Hurricanes Off Topic Lounge XI: The Numbers All Go to 11.

And even though the Panthers own the stadium, they are still able to convince the city and the state to spend millions renovating it for them!

Can't wait until the PNC Arena needs another round of renovations.

The Braves have a pretty loyal following. I agree with the Falcons tho. The ATL is Yellow Jacket territory anyway.

They have a loyal following but a lot of it is actually from places all around the Southeast U.S. I'd say the majority of people in the Atlanta metro area do fit the bandwagon definition pretty well even with the Braves.

And Atlanta is actually UGA territory. You see way more UGA apparel than GT apparel. Even though GT is located in Atlanta, I'd say the majority of the of city/metro area are UGA fans.

As for the Panthers, they are a complete joke. While I know Jerry Richardson is a big reason the Panthers exist in the first place, it's getting harder and harder to support this moronic d-bag.

This is probably the answer.

The own the stadium, but not the land it's on, the city leases it to them rent free.

Good thing Richardson loves Charlotte or you might lose that team.

Random topic in the midst of random topics-

I'm in the market for a small to midsize SUV... I think. I've always driven cars, but the convenience an SUV offers is enticing to me. Anyone have any experience, either good or bad, that can help me in deciding on one?

 

[Sasha Cares]

Looking new or used? Price range?

 

[Caniac4ever]

Probably used, but not more than a few years old. I'm looking for reliability as I'd plan on keeping it until it falls apart of old hopefully many years down the road. I'd like to keep the price between 20-25, but as long as its not redonkulous, I am willing to explore all my options.

I had a Toyota FJ Cruiser for a while. If you don't have any kids, and if you don't often have backseat passengers, i think it's a really cool vehicle. And it's not expensive, especially for a used one.

The Steam sale is making me be broke.

Yeah, I might have spent way too much last year...

I've only spent about $15 at this point, and thankfully don't see myself spending much more. Had to get surgeon simulator

This one ain't bad either. I can't wait for a more indepth analysis of what happened.

#Florida's star LB RT @GatorCountry: Antonio Morrison arrested last night for barking at police dog. Morrison was released later last night.

 

[Brock Anton]

Really Antonio? STOP GETTING ARRESTED.

Even though this one is ridiculous.

Yeah, that's a new one on me. Maybe he offended the dog?

 

[Oenatzu]

Wait, did the police dog arrest him?

Times like that you just wonder if one of their favorite childhood snacks was paint chips.

Sucks for Morrison. Jail must have been ruff.

My girlfriend bought a swim suit from Football Fanatics under my account, now I keep getting ads on this site for Alabama themed lingerie and bikinis.

... this could be a good thing.

I'm with Dave on this one.......

.....but it IS Alabama, so who knows what.

Well, maybe McCarron's girlfriend is the swimsuit/lingerie model?

 

[Brock Anton]

That would work.
