Brrrr! Coldest Carolina Panthers Games Ranked
This Saturday’s Carolina Panthers game is going to be cold. Really cold. How will it stack up against the coldest Carolina Panthers games on record?
The absolute coldest Carolina Panthers game was the NFC Championship game January 12, 1997 in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Temps never got above three degrees. Wind chills got down to minus-17. The Panthers lost to the Packers 30-13.
The second-coldest was 12 degrees when the Panthers played the Minnesota Vikings at TCF Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, November 30, 2014. The game was outdoors because the Vikings’ covered facility was under construction. The Panthers lost 31-13.
Third-coldest was December 1, 2002 in Cleveland, a frosty 25 degrees. Wind gusts of 25-mph drove the wind chill down to 12 degrees. The Panthers beat the Browns 13-6.
The fourth-coldest Carolina Panthers game was December 23, 2010 in Pittsburgh. Game time temperature was 27 degrees. The Panthers lost 27-3.
None of the Panthers’ seven coldest games have happened on their home field, but that will change Saturday. With the temperature at Bank of America Stadium expected to be around 25 degrees at kickoff, it could tie the 2002 Cleveland game for third-coldest. Wind chill on Saturday could make it feel like 15 degrees.
