Because this is the most important Panthers home game since before COVID, the Roaring Riot decided to do it BIG for the Roaring Riot's Tailgate With A Purpose before the Panthers take on the Bucs with a potential playoff spot and First Place in the NFC South on the line. 

At 11:30a, Petey Pablo hits the main stage to blow the roof off, running through the Carolina anthems everyone wants to hear before we march into Bank of America Stadium and get LOUD.

That's right, you heard correctly. NORTH CAROLINAAAAAAA!!!!

Sunday's edition of the tailgate has everything you expect from a Riot party:

  • Free, delicious food from Southern Science (and on a day like this, it won’t last long - food provided for first 500 guests)
  • $3 drinks from Tito's, Jack Daniels, Mighty Swell, Herradura, NoDa Brewing and more
  • Tremendous vibes and a guaranteed great time with your Riot fam
  • Free N/A drinks all tailgate long from our friends at Pepsi 
  • All proceeds benefit the Roaring Riot Foundation

Oh, and the first 500 people through the gate will get free rally towels courtesy of Carolina Realty Advisors Group.

But here’s the deal. We’re expecting a huge crowd and we will hit capacity. If you want in, you need to get there early. We will likely be turning people away - if you show up at 11:28 hoping to see Petey, you'll be sad.

You can purchase a VIP Pass or Pre-Order a Commemorative Shirt for pickup at the Tailgate HERE.

The only way to lock in your spot is to grab a guest pass in advance. We will likely not be able to sell guest passes at the door for this once-in-a-lifetime event.

Repeat: PETEY PABLO WILL BE AT THE ROARING RIOT TAILGATE. The Panthers are in first place in the NFC South. PLAN ACCORDINGLY.  RAISE UP.
