Buffalo Boy

The problem with Filet is it doesn’t have the flavor. Now, I LOVE Ribeye and it is my go to but do not sleep on Flank Steak!!!! FS has tremendous flavor. Try making some Chimichuri and have it with some open faced FS sandwich on French Bread brochettes!!!!!! You will thank me????

Holding the flag horizontal( as is done in many stadiums)goes against the Federal Flag code and is considered a sign of disrespect. Budweiser cans festooned with Flags..... Disrespect Large Bosommed ladies sporting Flag bikinis.... Disrespect Etc, etc, etc. People don't give a rats rear end about these things but lose their minds over principled stands for human beings and the way they are treated.......?

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Was thinking of a different place....Harpers maybe. I've gotten Pizza from Hawthornes in Mint Hill on 51. Have to agree about the Sterility. Between the strip mall feel and the whole " Southerner" thing it can suck sometimes but it is as much home now as Depew ever was. Not sure we will stay here for retirement but it is a good place to have raised my son. He's a much better kid than I was at his age due to lack of bad influence in this area😝

When I first got here, I was managing at the IHOP on 74 in Matthews and then the one in Pineville. I can't remember at which one but one night in walks Pete Metzelaars with four kids in tow. He would take under privileged kids out as a community service/ church mission sort of thing. I chatted with him , just a little. Heck of a guy!!! I thought Hawthornes was over by the Mall in Pineville? Been a while. We've lived in Union county since 99

We moved here in 98. Local sports were dominated by NASCAR and Basketball and College sports. The NFL was new to the town and the predominate fan base was Washington. Local talk radio was mostly other fans calling in about their team( this is where I got the name Buffalo Boy) 19 years on Panthers talk predominates and cogent arguments are made and discussed. Are they tough? An annual discussion here is " How do we get a home field advantage?" This is a symptom of a corporate "Wine and Cheese" crowd due toPSLs and Southern manners. I have no fear of going into this stadium wearing my colors but that doesn't mean that Cam and Kuechly and Co. don't have more backing than at any time since we came here. Expectations are high here this year and the home opener should be raucous and well attended.

We've been to both Bills Panthers games here and The Bills contingent has taken over the stadium both times. The Bills pasted them both times. Not sure about this year and the Panther's fans have " matured" into more football savy fans and will be out in force for their home opener. We just need to pick a decent lot( with portapotties) and start early👍🏻

Please share the info on here as it gets closer. Really looking forward to hanging with even more of my Buffalo Brethren!!!

Have fans coming in from Charleston SC and other from Charlotte. Didn't realize some of you guys lived here. A bunch of us will probably stop down that night. We should coordinate a lot to tailgate at Gameday

This!!!
