One of the few "Classic Bowl" stadiums left, Bank of America Stadium sits right in the heart of Uptown Charlotte. The skyline view is spectacular, and the location makes pre-game dining easy.
Keep Pounding
The "Keep Pounding" drum ritual happens before kickoff. A celebrity or former player hits the massive drum to honor the late Sam Mills. It is the heartbeat of the franchise.
Food: Bojangles
You are in North Carolina. You eat Bojangles. The Cajun Filet Biscuit and Bo-Berry Biscuit are staples of the southern football diet.
Tailgating
Because the stadium is downtown, traditional massive lots are rare. Instead, tailgating happens in small private surface lots dispersed throughout the city. It feels like an urban block party in every direction.
