Poplar I know you must be excited. I have been to Charlotte twice to see the Stones, nice place. The city must be getting all crunk up in there! |

Only to be disappointed when the annoying Patties crush them in Houston.

Oh yeah Some Guy! lots of fun. To be honest - i don't mind the Patriots. They're a hard team to hate (unlike our latest victim.. who doesn't enjoy whipping the Eagles) Like i said, the Pats are a good team. But not necessarily the better team. we'll see. big pep rally tomorrow at the square. i'm off, so i'll probably be wasted, jaming to some Stones in the hours before.
So i guess you came for Ericsson Stadium (bridges) and the Colisem (Security). Both good shows. I think the Stadium show was killer. Maybe the best show i've ever seen any band play in a place that big. I live about five blocks from it. btw, it's now officially Bank of America Stadium. surprise. |

The best arena name is Philly's FUC! |

Ah yes - the F.U. Center. Another building proudly wearing the name of a Charlotte-based bank.

Let's just hope for a GOOD, close game!!
And why can't they cancel that stupid halftime nonsense!!?
And why can't the game be played in the elements...REAL weather...?
And why I am going on about this?

Every year we wish for a good close game and once in a great while it actually happens. The hpe rarely matches the reality.
As far as the weather, the roof will be open[with exception of Aerosmith pregame] unless rain threatens or it's unusually cold.[NFL controls this] Our local forecast 9 days out calls for upper 50s and overcast with a 20-30% chance of rain. Most importantly the week leading up to the game is supposed to be in the 60's. This will be great for the street parties thurs., fri. and sat. Priorities don't you know. I plan to indulge fri. and sat. as long as there's an ample amount of Heineken available. It seems I'll be in the company of over 100,000 downtown on sat.
Just lead me to beer tent, Ronnie!

LJ - seems to me you're just discovering your deep passion for the Panthers. On behalf of everyone in charlotte, we're happy to have you on board.
go panthers! |
|

| LadyJane |
Well...as someone whose hometown team made it to the big Show 4 years straight and NEVER won...I always like to see a newbie team win.
I just want a good, close game, though!!

Who will be the home team?
My party plans are coming together nicely |

If the Bucs wore red last year, AFC is 'home', then PATS in blue. |

I saw on ESPN that a guy in Charlotte bet $100.00 that panthers would win super bowl before season started in Vegas. He could get ten grand. |
|
|
| Poplar |
yep - that guy will be tuning in on sunday.
my brother and i put $ on the cats at the start of the playoffs. sorry to say our payoff would not be $10,000.
but hell - i'll only need a few hundred bucks to party if we win sunday. in fact - i might just start buying beer today. stock up for several days, in case of a Panther win.

You haven't seen or heard Super Bowl hype until you see and hear it within the host city. It's been building for weeks but the last 2-3 and of course this week is unbelievable.
Reading USA Today or national mags. still doesn't give the full impression of what goes on. Not counting the thousands of press, football officials etc., there will be over twice the amount of people arriving here this week than can go to the game. The action and especially the private action aka parties is something else. Unfortunately I could not get in to Maxim's, Playboys, Sports Illustrated's or a host of other decadent parties.[lol] I'll just have to make do with cruising my favorite watering holes downtown along with all the special street events available to all us peons.
The weather forecast as the week heats up is upper 50s wed, 60s thurs with a little rain, 60s and sunny fri., upper 60s and partly sunny sat. and a front in the area sun. with 60s and maybe some rain but the timing is still up in the air. There's still a good chance the roof will be open, but that statement coming from a weather forecaster should be taken with a grain of salt.[lol]
Will the Pats cover, Ronnie?

Naw. One of those boring Superbowl games when the favourites spank the upstarts. It's not going to be a "good" game. A walkover. A pushover. I wouldn't bother to watch it. |

TTM that is a bold statement! Thats why they play the game. |

Just kidding. I hope its a good close game. Kind of like the way a cat toys with mouse....before the inevitable. But you never know, anyhing can happen. I like the SuperBowl but I hate to see the season end. |

It is hard to see the season end. |

You know me too well. While I'm rooting for the Panthers, I don't hold out much hope. |

But I do look forward to the commercials. Maybe next year if Vick is healthy my Atl Falcons will be up in there. |
