I really admire the postivity of somw of you to get behind it. I'm all for the idea being tried again. It really couldn't be worse timing though. Arguably the lowest the club has been in 15 years or so. Certainly the highest amount of apathy from the fanbase, And I think it's significantly stepped up this season too. So we will potentially have our noisest atmosphere in a long time whilst the club is at it's lowest. I'm all for getting behind the team, but I need something to feel I can get behind first. Apathy and a migraine? |

Hope you’re wrong, as i’d love Panthers games to be noisy and intimidating, however I fear you are right Rob, as far too many of our fans have had their voice boxes removed and would be better suited to the library for a night out. However it's got to be understood that most aged persons were very vocal years ago but quieter now and when your their age might be the same. But as a whole the crowd are turning into a sit and watch clan. Suppose if you've paid your money you can do as you wish. sensible reply and its a bit like the cart before the horse if we had a winning team playing great hockey the atmosphere would improve but while they are stinking the ice out, the panthers are lucky we are turning up let alone singing |

Instead of all this noisy block rubbish, how about spending enough money on a team that excites all the fans?
What amounts to little more than a sticking plaster will not hide the deficiencies on the ice, and the noisy minority will remain just that, or more likely just fade away.

Sunday against Belfast was the first game I've been able to attend for a while, and I've got to say, I tip my hat to the folks in 19. From little acorns and all that.....

There isn’t really a bad seat in the NIC but for anyone who might be a bit hesitant about moving there because of the view, it’s better than I thought it would be.
We’ve really enjoyed the last few games whilst we’ve been there, I’m sure the performances have helped but it feels like a positive vibe is developing. It would be great to have the block packed for the next few games, especially against Sheffield, and hopefully everyone in the building joins in.
The one thing we can all agree on is that when the NIC is rocking it is an intimidating place, that’s got to be the ultimate goal from this.

I hope it continues and is taken forward for future seasons too. The noise it's created has been superb and the arena has been rocking, it's done wonders for the atmosphere and the players seem to love it too.
Another thing I hope for though is that the people at the helm of it spend more time focusing on making the noise and improving the atmosphere, rather than posting pictures of their penises on social media. I was starting to respect them quite a bit with how well Block 19 has gone but doing that just tossed all that respect down the drain. Have a laugh and everything for sure, I have no issue with that but it's so far beyond the line when pictures of penises start flying around like it's something the fan base, and every other fan base want to see. Each to their own I suppose though.

I mean, I'm definitely in the group of people who didn't want to see his wedding tackle on twitter, but if someone wants to post that up there it's not my (or anyone elses) place to stop them. Not quite sure why someone in block 19 exhibiting their one eyed trouser snake is a blemish on all the fans up there. I mean Neil Black sits in Block 15, should we respect them less to? |

Nobody is at the helm of it either, other than the club, everyone is welcome and gets on. |

Neil Black sits in Block 15, should we respect them less to? Err, yeah  Block 5's the place to be. Neil Black wishes he sat in block 5. This thread has taken a most unexpected turn btw. |

Borrowing my flag for the next game to add a little something.I'm unsure if it was from the old Stadium, perhaps people can let me know later on. It is white with a red, gold and black cross over it. Panther's head and some quote penned upon it too.

To answer your questions TFS and Pidge, the Panthers Puckcast group (I think it's called) who have been prominent in Block 19, decided to do some dares with each other over the last couple weekends.
One involved one of them running down some ally-way naked, and then on Sunday I believe, the other one posted a fully nude selfie on their twitter account as a 'Dare'. Not censored or anything.
I believe it was either removed or deleted as there were more than a few who were disgusted by it.

I may be in the minority here, but there appears to be a massive over reaction to it's perceived success.
I will reiterate that i'm all for it happening and trying to generate a much better atmosphere, not against the drums or anything.
But.... The arena was rocking?? Come on. It was nothing like. Perhaps sitting up there or very close it sounded a bit louder but it was a million miles from rocking. It was hardly CHL atmosphere.
I sit in block 13 so I am quite far away, but the way it appeared to me was as it pretty much did lsst time it was tried.
A dull constant noise coming from the far end which I couldn't tell what was being sung most of the time.
On occassion the odd "normal chant" was instigated from up there which more people joined in on. The biggest chant that people from all around the arena joined in with was a spontanious one started from somewhere like block 7.
The biggest and best atmosphere is still generated from what happens on the ice.
Ultimately if the players are responding to it and it's having a postive effect then it's good news. I hope it grows and does start to get the building rocking. I also hope those who get involved enjoy it.
I've just seen a lot of over reaction, thats all.

It’s in the wrong place that’s the biggest problem. Block 19 is only a little block,probably only holds about 120 seats if it were full and it’s so tucked away high up behind the netting that it just won’t have the effect it could. They need to move it to a better and bigger block,even block 18 would be much better. If Panthers really want this to take off they need to make some plans for next season even if that means upsetting a few season ticket holders. |

I also sit in 13 but I thought the noise from 19 came across quite well, there were definitely more people sat around me joining in with chants than they usually do just because there was a drum beat. |
