About The Crown Club
The Crown Club is partnered with the Panthers "The Roaring Riot" and is committed to delivering away trips, tailgates, community events and much more. The fan union hosts about 45+ events a year. A major chunk of those being “TEAL” gates at a bar called The Local down the street from the arena for every home games and where members eat for free. Co-found Evan Kent says “I tell people, if you come to at least two games a season the membership is worth it for the food alone”. The other events can range from charity cookouts to watch parties like they had for the Play-in game last season that had over 200 people in attendance. A portion of every membership due goes to the Rollin’ Hornets, the Hornets wheelchair basketball team.
The Crown Club is planning a watch party for the season opener as well as a big party at the Local for the home opener where all are welcome to come grab a beer on their tab! Evan urges everyone to attend to make those game day experiences that bit more meaningful.
“It’s the little things. Through the ups and downs of a season I know I’m not alone and that I can walk into the tailgate and see a group of familiar faces every night that love my team as much as I do. We have become a family of sorts and that just makes going to the games that bit more special.”
See below for a full list of upcoming events:
