    Panthers offer tickets to New Orleans evacuees

    Panthers offer tickets to New Orleans evacuees
    ESPN.com news services

    CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Carolina Panthers are giving 350 tickets to Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints to Hurricane Katrina evacuees.

    The tickets will be distributed to evacuees who are registered with the Red Cross at the Charlotte Coliseum. The Panthers are also giving out $10 food vouchers for each person to use at the game.

    The tickets came out of the players' allotments and the unused portion that the Saints returned.



    Don't get me wrong...this is cool and all..but,really, how many of these folks are really gonna care about a football game right now??
    And a $10 dollar food voucher??!! are you serious??!! That will probably buy half a hot dog...
    DONATE SOME HARD CASH!!!!!!!
    or did they do that as well??

          I think after the hellish two weeks that these people have endured, a little normalcy of a football game will be welcomed. Kind of like FDR asking Landis to make sure baseball survived WWII...an 'escape' for peoples minds...if only for a little while...
          Maybe this is what a heroine addict feels like after getting a long awaited fix, shooting up in the corner of some abandoned building and just not giving a fuck about what the rest of the world thinks...TATTOO"

              I'm a Panthers fan, but TEN DOLLARS?! That won't do much at Erick..I mean Bank Of America stadium. You would need 20 for 2 hot dogs and 2 drinks. Nice thought, but give these people enough money to last for 4 hours...

                  I have a feeling those people won't want to see the inside of a stadium for a while, if they were in that Hellish nightmare at the Superdome.
