The scoreboard wasn’t the only place at Bank of America Stadium where the Carolina Panthers were outnumbered in Week 4. There was also plenty of purple in the backdrop of Sunday’s 21-13 defeat, as Minnesota Vikings fans rained into the lair and seemingly made it their own.
Unfortunately for Carolina, this was far from the first takeover of their home turf. Heck, Vikings fans did the very same thing just two years ago.
So, in case you missed it (although we’re not sure if you really could have), here are some scenes of the purple seater eaters:

Vikings fans showed up for this one for sure. Great stadium atmosphere though, digging the classic outdoor stadium vibe. So many stadiums are these indoor super stadiums now, which is fine, but this is the best way to watch a football game, IMO https://t.co/B82sW7PW9o pic.twitter.com/eNCZQGOBrX
