The plan to reshape the home of the Carolina Panthers got a lot more real on Monday.
Last night, the Charlotte City Council approved the massive renovation proposal for Bank of America Stadium by a vote of seven to three. And now, the wheels of the project are set to be put in motion—as the city will invest $650 million into the facelift with work expected to begin in 2026.
But how are the Panthers fans feeling about this latest development?
Here are some of the best reactions following the vote:

Im excited to see the new renovations to the panthers stadium in a few years but I do the biggest eye roll when I see anyone cite “positive economic impact” as a reason why we pay for stadiums. It’s a myth that’s been proven for decades. You just want something new. That’s fine
