10 Reasons Why Being A Carolina Panthers Fan Rocks
Operation Sports

I am from Charlotte, North Carolina. I was born and raised in the Queen City, which has taught me many things. But I think the best thing about being born and raised in Charlotte would be being a Panther’s fan. I have been a Panther’s fan since I was a baby and I am the type of fan that still wears her Panther’s sweatshirt after a loss.

Here is why being a Panther’s fan is my favorite.

We play in Charlotte.

Charlotte is a beautiful city -- especially during football season.

Panther blue everywhere.

During each home game that is held at night, all of the surrounding buildings are lit up in a beautiful Panther blue color. Each touchdown the lights just flash and it’s amazing.

Have you seen Luke Kuechly?

The way he sacks people is amazing. According to the Nfl website, Kuechly has completed a total of 371 tackles in his career.

Sir Purr kills it.

Our mascot is the coolest. There is no arguing.

The Top Cats, anyone?

The Top Cats are also amazing.

Two words: Cam Newton.

According to the official NFL website, Cam Newton has completed 35 touchdowns, 10 interceptions and ran 3,837 yards in his career.

Panther tailgates.

Panther rallies and tailgates are the best. They are loud, fun and crazy.

Everyone loves to ‘Dab on em.’

We even have our grandmas dabbin' on y’all.

Die-hard fans.

Real Panther’s fans are the die hard fans. They have the original 1992 sweatshirts and wear the older jerseys all the time.

KEEP POUNDING.

Our motivational phrase “KEEP POUNDING” actually means something more. On the Panther’s website, it gives a detailed reason for our mantra. Carolina Panther player and coach, Sam Mills, always used the phrase in his speeches. Now it means so much more to so many more people because we all need to keep pounding.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
