To be fair, here in Panther country, we are a little sensitive about being the laughing stock of the NFL.

Krymson Tyde		2012-10-25 08:18:40 AM

Coming from someone who is a pretty big supporter of his team, this kind of over the top bullshiat is ridiculous and should not be tolerated by other fans. If you see someone on your side being a prick step in and put a stop to it.

Cythraul		2012-10-25 08:19:53 AM

It's just a game, people.

I would expect this from Eagle fans, not Panther fans.

Its way more fun to chuck something at one of the agressors and see if you can't speed things up a bit.

Also, people in wheelchairs are notorious jerks as are Cowboy fans so I'm just going to assumethis guy had it coming.

JerseyTim		2012-10-25 09:18:47 AM

I'd like to see a Cowboys fan get slapped around, but even I have my limits.

SDRR		2012-10-25 09:21:10 AM

Sounds like "Tank" is farking jackass of the highest order. It'd be nice to find out who he is.....

The owner of the bar sounds like a jagoff as well, why didn't he have "Tank" STFU and GTFO??

oh_please		2012-10-25 09:23:31 AM

On Sunday, staff members asked Garrett Carnes and his party to leave, while they took Tank to another area of the restaurant.

Sounds like "Tank" was buddies with one or more of the staff, and the owner is now embarrassed.

Seriously, what kind of asshole does something like this? I've been to sports bars/restaurants hundreds of times, (some in enemy territory) and never seen what they're describing. Hell, I've ended up sharing a pitcher or three with the opposing team's fans more often than not.

Gunny Highway		2012-10-25 09:25:08 AM

Let me tell you something else. I've seen a lot of double amputees, subby, and that guy is a fake. A farking goldbricker. That guy farking walks. I've never been more certain of anything in my life!

Frank N Stein		2012-10-25 09:25:32 AM

I thought those backwoods hicks were more respectful of veterans. I hope "Tank" loses both of his legs to diabetes.

the_freelance		2012-10-25 09:31:41 AM

Grew up a die-hard Cleveland Browns fan....OK, stop laughing. Anyway, living in Maryland in the 90s used to go to this die-hard Stiller bar (the Outta the Way Cafe) to watch Browns-Stillers, eat perogies, and drink beer. And it was great. The owner really appreciated us coming out and making it more like a real game, comped us some apps, maybe a pitcher. And guess what? His attitude carried over to the Stiller nuts who ribbed us and all, but it never got close to out of hand. Well, except when the owner would get really happy about a play and start slinging cans of Iron City thru the air, across the room. Instant sobriety test. Good times.

The owner of this CLT joint can play heartsick all he wants. He knew exactly what kind of atmosphere he had in his place -- seething, mean, and nasty -- and liked it that way.

HotWingConspiracy		2012-10-25 09:32:44 AM

And to think my son almost died for every single person in that bar, by defending all your freedom."

Groan.

There is a large population of backwoods hicks in Charlotte.

Every team has asshole fans. The important thing is keeping the proportion of them as low as possible.

I think your right. "Tank" isn't the name on his farking credit card. It's a nickname you give a regular at a shiatty bar.

I worked in that area a few years and I really tried to like that bar. But the food is shiatty and it had the weird regular vibe I could never get past. The place is a good candidate for that show Bar Rescue. It's never packed despite being in an excellent location with lots and lots of traffic. It has a huge deck that just screams come drink beer on me. If you have ever been to Charlotte we have the weather for that almost all the time. Every time I have stopped there are 8-12 blue collar types sitting at the bar still in their dirty ass work clothes.

FTFY. Backwoods hicks can't afford the city.

They can't afford the suburbs of Charlotte either.

Because the owner wasn't there at the time.

FTA: Neilsen said he arrived at the restaurant after the group had left and was in the parking lot, talking to police.

IAmRight		2012-10-25 09:40:50 AM

I like how people think there aren't rednecks who are actually named Tank.

"On Sunday, staff members asked Garrett Carnes and his party to leave, while they took Tank to another area of the restaurant."

THEN:

The manager said: "I didn't want them to leave," he said of the Carnes-Coburn party, "but I understand why they left. I'm miserable. My heart hurts for them."

They left because your staff threw them out, asshat.

lunchinlewis		2012-10-25 09:52:15 AM

That's usually how it goes down. Although most restaurant staff I've observed will get both parties to leave, which is also often not the "fairest" resolution.

TheOther		2012-10-25 09:57:03 AM

What is Tank's Fark handle?

Hear hear. Especially when the prick is some thumb-dicked coward taunting a guy in a friggin' WHEELCHAIR.

Now see? This is why the south lost.

1/10

IAmRight		2012-10-25 10:04:34 AM

BTW, even though it's possible that it was a 100% unprovoked, unescalated attack lasting a while, I think it's more than likely that there was considerably more trash coming from the Cowboys fans' side. Just a hunch, having known many veterans, wounded veterans, and Cowboys fans (and even Cowboys fan veterans).

Doesn't excuse it, though. Even if it was a Cowboys fan.

octopied		2012-10-25 10:04:42 AM

truth told, many people with no legs or useless legs have freaking muscular arms.

THIS.

I would have loved to slap the shiat out of those idiot Bears fans with the Katrina signs. Actually, if you could lock them in a room with Mike North, I'd happily set the building on fire.

There is no "Panther country," just a bunch of monied hillbillies waiting for college basketball season to start.

Never been to Charlotte, eh? There are more transplants from the frigid north than hillbillies here.

Never let an opportunity to take a shot at Cowboys pass by. Keep it classy.

Everyone on my block has Panthers flags outside. Funny how everyone's such a die hard fan of a team that isn't even of voting age. I'll throw a Giants one up to for this guy.

Guy's name is Tank, yet since I've been down here, I feel like a Giant at 6'2. These inbreds average 5'9. It's why they love Nascar, they too small to play other sports.

They can't afford the suburbs of Charlotte either.

At least I'm in a part of Concord that they can't afford. Unfortunately, I have to drive through some of the trailer park sections to get to a store. Nothing like seeing 4 sheds jam packed with rusted shiat. And apparently school is optional down here, kids are home all day.

Double amputee veteran probably coulda taken him. We've got an abundance of loud talkers with glass jaws in NC.
