Panther Fans Visiting Week 12...Questions

1. For tickets I usually look for them on eBay, especially early you can get great deals. If not I scalp at the game but I don't think that would be a good idea hearing your situation.

2. Sun Life is very visitor friendly, usually lot's of away team fans in the stands unfortunately. I think Miami fans are usually very friendly at the stadium.

3. Yeah look for tickets with a parking pass and you can set up a nice little spot for tail gaiting, you might get the occasional ball breaker fans walking by but I wouldn't expect too much being Carolina isn't a big rival.

4. Don't know much on places to stay near the stadium but I'm sure someone else can help you out there.

Enjoy the game and GO FINS

I live in Mooresville, and am a dolphin fan. I came down about 9 years ago with some kitty fans and watched the game. I was the only fins fan. A safety picked Jake late in the 4th and the fins held on to win. Can't remember the safety's name, but I think he was number 30, could be wrong though. I think it was Ronnie Brown's rookie year.

Do you live in Charlotte??

2. Is Sun Life Stadium a visitor friendly stadium? We are not trash talking, obnoxious fans."

Yeah, I would say it's visitor friendly, two things you need the most, binoculars and sunblock...lol.

We are planning on coming to Miami week 12 to watch the Panthers and Dolphins and I need some help. It may be a group of us, adults and kids or it may be just my wife, daughter and I. I know its a long way off but Im a planner and like to have a good game plan. Thanks in advance for any help I can get.

1. Tickets. Whats the best way to get them? Craigslist? Directly from the Dolphins? We'd like lower level and preferably on the visitors bench side.

3. Tailgating. We tailgate every home game here. Whats it like there? We wont have our home game set up but we can get a basic party going.

4. Where is a nice, safe area to stay in Miami? I have Hilton Honors points and prefer a hotel under that umbrella.

Thats all I have for now but I know I'll think of something else. Thanks again for any help.

I don't care how late in the year the game is, be very conscious of the heat and sun. It can still be brutal.

Be sure to check StubHub for tickets. I bought lowerlevel tickets for less than $30 twice last year.

We're in Huntersville actually, just off of exit 23.

Thanks everybody for the info. Im ready to get it nailed down. Have to find out how many of us there will be. I'll be back with a few more questions im sure.

I live in the Triad area. I'm thinking about coming down for this game as well.

Sit in the Club Level. Way better than being on the lower level IMO.

there's a beautiful Hilton in downtown Fort Lauderdale right on A1A across street from beach. great area, just a good walk to nice outside restaurants along with lots of stores. it's prob a 20 min drive to stadium.

4 PM games in Miami are for babies that cry that the sun is too hot.

Not sure what time the game is at as well, but if it is 1 pm and you don't want to bake in the sun, try and sit on the Dolphins side of the field. At least in the lower level, you will certainly have more shade.

I live near Hickory, North Carolina. I'm planning on coming down to go to this game too, go Dolphins!
