    Bank of America Stadium

    Bank of America Stadium   (formerly known as Car-

    olinas Stadium and Ericsson Stadium) is a 75,412-seat

    football stadium  located on 33 acres (13 ha) of land

    in uptown   Charlotte, North Carolina,   USA. It is the

    home facility and headquarters of the Carolina Panthers

    NFL  franchise.[12] It also hosts the annual   Belk Bowl,

    which features teams from the   Atlantic Coast Confer-

    ence  and the   Southeastern Conference, and the annual

    ACC Championship Game  through 2019.[13][14][15][16]

    The largest crowd to ever attend a football game at

    the stadium was on December 5, 2015 when 74,514fans watched the Clemson Tigers defeat the North Car-

    olina Tar Heels 45-37 in the  2015 ACC Championship

    Game.[17] It has been called "[A] classic American sta-

    dium,” by Panthers president Danny Morrison due to its

    bowl design and other features.[18]

    1 Other sites considered for selec-

    tion

    The Panthers organization considered several possiblesites for the stadium’s location before choosing the

    Charlotte center city site. Part of the site was occupied

    by the historic Good Samaritan Hospital. One alterna-

    tive was near NASCAR's Charlotte Motor Speedway and

    the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in northeast

    Mecklenburg County. Another was at the intersection of

    I-85 and US 74 in western Gaston County. A popular op-

    tion was to locate the facility near Carowinds amusement

    park, with the 50 yard line being on the state border of

    North Carolina and South Carolina.

    2 Naming

    The stadium, originally known as   Carolinas Stadium

    (a name which remains as an alternative venue name for

    events which require sponsor neutralization such as FIFA

    matches), opened in 1996 as Ericsson Stadium after the

    Swedish telecom company LM Ericsson  purchased the

    naming rights to the stadium in a ten-year, $25 million

    agreement.[19] In 2004, the stadium received its current

    name after Bank of America purchased the naming rights

    for 20 years.[20] Since Bank of America acquired namingrights, many fans now refer to the stadium as “The Bank”,

    “The BOA”, “The B of A”, or “The Vault”. [21]

    3 Stadium Features

    Bank of America Stadium has many unique external fea-

    tures. Aspects of the stadium’s architecture, such as the

    three huge main entrances, incorporate the team’s col-

    ors of black, process blue and silver. Arches that connectcolumn supports on the upper deck resemble the shape of

    half a football, while several acres of numerous trees and

    landscaping surround the building. The stadium’s archi-

    tecture and design has been compared to that of the Los

    Angeles Memorial Coliseum  and Soldier Field, among

    others. It’s also received mentions for externally resem-

    bling “a fortress” instead of a stadium.[22]

    Each of the stadium’s entrances are flanked on both sides

    by two larger-than-life bronze panther statues, some-

    thing unique throughout the entire NFL. These six stat-

    ues are all named Indomitable Spirit and were installed

    in 1996.[23] Each one depicts a crouching, snarling pan-ther with green eyes; they are the largest sculptures ever

    commissioned in the United States.[24][25] The names of

    the team’s original PSL owners are engraved into each

    statue’s base.

    Another striking feature the stadium contains are its six

    light domes. These are found on top of the main en-

    trances, two per entrance, and sit over a hundred feet

    in the air. Originally, they simply glowed the Panthers’

    unique 'process blue' every night. As the seasons wore on,

    the emitted light became less and less impressive and the

    domes started showing their age. During the 2014 reno-

    vations, the domes were rebuilt with LED systems. Theycan now be seen again projecting process blue nightly in

    various ways not possible with the original technology.[26]

    Additionally, the two people currently in the Panthers

    Hall of Honor, former team executive Mike McCormack

    and former Panthers linebacker and assistant coach Sam

    Mills, are honored with life-sized bronze statues outside

    the stadium.[27] Before the 2014 renovations, the names

    of the hall of honor inductees were placed where the

    upper ribbon board now resides. These names (at least

    Mills’) were subsequently repainted onto the top rear

    wall behind the last row of seats. Additionally, three

    marble copies of a quote about the stadium from teamowner Jerry Richardson were placed near the stadium’s

    entrances in 2014.[28]

    2   5 IMPACT ON NFL VENUES 

    4 Carolina Panthers

    In addition to hosting every Panthers home game since

    1996, Bank of America Stadium has also hosted seven

    playoff games and Carolina has had over 125 consecutive

    sellouts at the stadium starting with the 2002 season.[29]

    4.1 Inaugural season

    The Panthers played their inaugural season at   Clemson

    University's Memorial Stadium while the stadium was be-

    ing constructed. On August 3, 1996, the stadium played

    host to its first professional football game as the Panthers

    took on the Chicago Bears during the preseason. The in-

    augural kickoff was at 7:35 PM and Carolina won 30-

    12.[30] The stadium’s first regular season game took place

    on September 14, 1996 against Carolina’s to-be division

    rival Atlanta; the Panthers won by a score of 29-6.[31]

    4.2 Playoff games

    In 1996, on their way to their first  NFC Championship

    Game, Carolina defeated the then-defending Super Bowl

    Champion Dallas Cowboys in the first playoff game the

    stadium hosted. Again they defeated the Cowboys on

    their way to Super Bowl XXXVIII in  Houston in 2004.

    Carolina was handed their first ever home playoff loss,

    33-13, by the   Arizona Cardinals   on January 10, 2009

    in the divisional round. The Panthers suffered a second

    home playoff loss against the   San Francisco 49ers   23-

    10 on January 12, 2014 in the same round. On January

    3, 2015, the Panthers won their first home playoff game

    in 12 years, defeating the Arizona Cardinals 27-16. En

    route to their fourth NFC Championship game appear-

    ance, the Panthers beat the  Seattle Seahawks  31-24 in

    the divisional round on January 17, 2016. The Panthers

    defeated the Arizona Cardinals 49-15 in the NFC Cham-

    pionship game for their first NFC championship victory

    in twelve years and second in franchise history on Jan-

    uary 24, 2016. This marked the first NFC Championship

    played at the stadium.

    4.3 Weather games

    Since it is an open-air stadium, Bank of America Stadium

    has been subjected to a number of games where weather

    became a factor.

    •   Perhaps the most memorable weather-related game

    the stadium played host to in 2011 wasn't forecasted

    in advance. During a week 3 matchup with the

    Jacksonville Jaguars, towards the end of the sec-

    ond quarter, a huge rainstorm suddenly blanketedthe stadium. This caused a stunning sight: due

    to the stadium’s design access water on the upper

    deck poured onto the lower deck and subsequently

    the field, every spot resembling miniature water-

    falls. The field soon became flooded.  CBS cameras

    captured numerous images, including players, some

    fans (many were in the concourses) and even cheer-

    leaders braving the elements. This event was made

    even more unusual by CBS' primary camera coveredwith so many raindrops that, at one point, TV view-

    ers could hardly tell which Panthers player picked

    off a pass. Overall, four-plus inches of rain fell in

    under an hour.[32] Charlotte Magazine later termed

    the game as the "[2011] Water Bowl”.[33] Carolina

    managed to win 16-10.[34]

    •  In week 16 of the 2013 season, with the Panthers

    playing the Saints in a game that would give the Pan-

    thers a playoff berth, heavy rain and wind hit the

    stadium during the second quarter. Unlike the Jack-

    sonville game, where wind had been a non-factor,the fans stayed in their seats and the rain moved on

    minutes later. The Panthers eventually won 17-13.

    •   On a Monday night game during the 2015 season,

    rain kept up all night, although not as heavy as the

    2011 game. Nevertheless, this made field conditions

    miserable, however, the fans again braved the ele-

    ments. The Panthers held on to win 29-26.

    •  In the days leading up to the 2015 NFC Champi-

    onship game, the field and sections in and around

    the stadium were covered in snow and an ice/sleet

    mixture. However, the Panthers grounds crew along

    with help managed to clear the field before the game.

    Most of the snow/sleet around and/or inside the sta-

    dium was either cleared or had melted before the

    game began.

    5 Impact on NFL venues

    At the time of its construction in the mid-1990s, the sta-

    dium was a pioneering project for the use of   Personal

    Seat Licenses. It was the first large-scale project funded

    in the United States chiefly through securing PSLs, which

    were a new idea themselves. The strength of PSL pledges

    impressed NFL owners and helped result in the Caroli-

    nas receiving the first NFL expansion team in nearly two

    decades. The stadium was also credited with being a ma-

    jor cause for new NFL stadium construction. Between

    1996 and 2002, eleven new NFL stadiums opened their

    doors, similar to the impact Camden Yards had for MLB

    ballparks a few years earlier.The Seattle Seahawks used

    the stadium, among others, as a reference when designing

    CenturyLink Field.[35] By 2013, the number of stadiumsthat had either opened or underwent renovations since

    Bank of America Stadium opened had risen to 25.[36]

    6 Stadium Renovations

    During its first few seasons the stadium was consid-

    ered so far ahead of its time that until the 2013-14 off-

    season, it only underwent minor improvements (aside

    from seating additions). The most notable of these im-

    provements came in 2007 when the original scoreboards,

    video boards and displays from 1996 were replaced with

    31.5'x77' video boards and four ribbon boards: two span-

    ning the length of the field on either side and two in sep-

    arate corners.

    In the following years the stadium still wasn't considered

    as up-to-date as other NFL stadiums. One reason was the

    stadium’s speakers were all contained in one scoreboard,resulting in audio that wasn't always spectacular. The

    video boards were troubling too. Although larger than the

    original boards, part of the screen on each was split with a

    graphic that showed the score, game clock, play clock and

    other statistics, meaning the video portion couldn't use

    the board’s full size. As more stadiums invested in larger

    scoreboards and technology enhancements, it became ap-

    parent Bank of America Stadium needed upgrades in or-

    der to keep up with the changing times.

    During the 2013 offseason, the team renovated their

    home locker room, lengthening it which added more lock-

    ers (74 compared to 66 before), making the interior lookmore clean and modern, and adding the team’s then-new

    logo throughout.[37]

    Carolina proposed a $250 million stadium renovation

    project in early 2013, pending a vote by the city of Char-

    lotte to help pay for the renovations. This plan would've

    been quite extensive, as it included two sets of new score-

    boards, multiple escalators (possibly elevators), infras-

    tructure improvements, and concourse improvements,

    among others.[38] The subsequent vote failed and efforts

    to get any money from the State of North Carolina failed

    as well. However, in April 2013 the Charlotte city coun-

    cil agreed to an $87.5 million deal for the renovations.This deal also keepsthe Panthers in Charlotte until at least

    2019.[39] Despite the lower cost, the renovations would

    stay true to the team’s original plans.

    6.1 2014

    In January 2014, the Panthers began the most signif-

    icant renovations to the stadium in its 18-year history

    as part one of a multi-year renovation plan. The up-

    grades, completed by the start of the 2014-2015 NFL sea-

    son, included numerous enhancements. First and perhaps

    most striking of all, two 200'x56' HD video boards (over

    twice the size of their predecessors), and two 360° rib-

    bon boards from Daktronics replaced the previous score-

    boards/ribbon boards. The new ribbon boards were the

    tallest in the NFL at the time of their installation[40] and

    the video boards were among the top ten largest out of all

    NFL stadiums.[41] Game video is shown fullscreen on the

    video boards since the upper ribbon board handles the

    score and statistics. Secondly, escalators were installedfor the upper deck, making access easier for fans. These

    warranted extensions to the building itself, which kept the

    same external design. A new surround sound system was

    also included, with speakers placed around the perime-

    ter of the bowl doubling as flagpoles. In addition, four

    covered open-air sections on the upper deck called “fan

    plazas” were added. Finally, LED-enhanced glass domes

    were installed, replacing the original fiberglass domes,

    along with new external signage above the entrances.[42]

    6.2 2015

    Prior to the start of the 2015 season, the Panthers ren-

    ovated all 158 existing luxury suites to the stadium and

    added a new private club suite, dubbed “The 32 Club”

    due to its position at the 32-yard line. The team later an-

    nounced another new club, dubbed the“51 Club” in honor

    of former player and coach Sam Mills, would also be

    added. These new installations decreased the stadium’s

    number of luxury suites to 153,[43] but increased overall

    seating capacity. The team also added two small ribbon

    boards above each tunnel exit for advertising purposes

    which can be seen on the field.

    6.3 2016

    During the 2015 offseason, part three of the renovations

    will focus on upgrading the upper-level concourse and the

    stadium’s notorious wi-fi system.[44]

    7 College football

    Bank of America Stadium does not serve as the primaryhome stadium for any college football team. However, it

    has hosted several college football games.
