As part of an ongoing effort to reward our most loyal fans, the Carolina Panthers have launched a new Panthers Fans 1st program. It is the organization's goal to provide an exceptional fan experience for each and every fan attending a Panthers game. During the 2010 season, fans at all regular season home games will notice numerous fan interactive elements as part of this new initiative.
GAME DAY PROGRAMS
Panthers Fans 1st Fridays: Sir Purr will tweet a location each Friday before a home game, indicating where he will be between noon and 12:30 p.m. that day. At that location, Sir Purr will have special giveaways - including four tickets to the game on Sunday. You must follow Sir Purr on Twitter or Facebook to get the location for the Panthers Fans 1st Fridays.
