Bank of America Stadium was completed for the start of the 1996 season. The Carolina Panthers played their first game at the stadium on September 14, 1996. Bank of America Stadium is one of the NFL's premier stadiums from the outside to inside. Located right outside of downtown Charlotte, the facade of Bank of America Stadium is very unique. It consists of massive archways, and domed towers. Bank of America Stadium features a striking black obsidian granite facade. A pair of black panthers, each eight-feet-tall, and weighing 2,000 pounds, perched on ten-foot pedestals, are located on both sides of each of the three 80-foot arched entrances. The 48-foot diameter light domes atop the entry towers are lit every night. The exterior looks like many other notable stadiums, such as Soldier Field. Bank of America Stadium consists of over 73,000 blue and silver seats in three tiers that circle the playing field. The stadium has many amenities, including the Bank of America club and 158 luxury suites. Two massive scoreboards are located atop the upper deck past each end zone. Bank of America Stadium also includes three practice facilities, training facilities, and administrative offices. The Panthers hope to have years of success at Bank of America Stadium.
