The Carolina Panthers: Pro Football in the Queen City

Published: 08/25/2011 by John Gibson in Sports

Why would you want a professional football team in your city? Well, for one, the games are fun to go to and the team itself has the ability to heighten the pride of the city’s residents. Another great perk is the fact that tourism will go up, the economy can profit from the influx of consumers, and the extra money can contribute to many great causes in the area. Though these perks are wonderful, most cities do not get to claim a professional football team—but the Queen City does!

Having a professional football team is a great honor for a city, as it not only brings in revenue but offers residents a fun activity that enhances their loyalty to their hometown. Charlotte, North Carolina is home to the Carolina Panthers, a professional football team that has grown hugely popular in the South. Of course, every good team needs a great stadium, and the Bank of America Stadium is the Queen City’s destination for professional football.
