The Carolina Panthers may have lost in the 2nd round of the divisional playoffs but they may have captured a few fans on their journey.
12 year old Cade Pope, could not make up his mind on what NFL team to be a fan of! With 32 teams, colors, and playing styles, its serious commitment for any NFL fan. To finalize Cade’s decisions, he decided to write all 32 team owners. In 2 weeks, Cade had his first response, Carolina Panthers owner, Jerry Richardson.
Richardson sent him a handwritten letter along with a signed helmet by defensive star Luke Kuechly.
“Cade, we would be honored if our Carolina Panthers became your team,” the letter stated. “We would make you proud by the classy way we represent you.”
Cade went on to say that if no other team responds then he is a Panther fan. Considering that Richardson responded quickly, even if Cade decides otherwise, this was an amazing gesture.
