Most recently a curious young couple thought fit to devote their entire wedding ceremony to the team they love so much.

The bride wore a beautiful white wedding gown, and the groom was dressed in black with a Panthers tie. The maid of honor and the bridesmaids wore customized white team jerseys with the number 9 signifying the month, and either Maid of Honor or Bridesmaid on the nameplate. The best man, usher, and groomsmen all wore black team with the number 30 signifying the date, and either Best Man, Usher or Groomsman on the nameplate. The flower girl was a future Top Cat, wearing the traditional black and blue cheerleader outfit, and the ring bearer wore a blue number 30 Ring Bearer jersey.

If you'd like to congratulate the lovely couple they're registered at the souvenir stand next to section 108 and their local Brew Threw location. Frankly I like this idea a hell of a lot more than the alternative option for sports themed weddings in the Carolinas...

<![CDATA[Living And Dying With Your Team ... Live On Video!]]>

Last week, West Ham United faced potential relegation from the Premiership. It came down to one vital game ... and this man was there to do everything in his power to help his team survive.

There's not a single person reading this site, we suspect, who has not looked like this at one point or another. (It's usually Cardinals playoff or Illini NCAA tournament games that do it to us.) We can laugh at this guy, but none of us would want a camera on us, not during one of the BIG games. We'd probably all look just as bad, if not worse.
