The Carolina Panthers just experienced their most shameful Sunday of the 2023 season—and that’s saying something since they’ve had quite a bit of those.
On top of being shut out for the first time in 21 years and clinching the No. 1 overall pick for the Chicago Bears, the Panthers faced more embarrassment courtesy of owner David Tepper on New Year’s Eve. A video showed Tepper appearing to angrily dispose the contents of a cup towards the crowd at EverBank Stadium during the team’s 26-0 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

And this, of course, got Panthers fans going to work on Twitter . . .
Tepper has found himself in the cross hairs of sports media again.

Tepper is SOFT he threw that drink on a fan and then walked off quick. He's fortunate that somebody didn't jump in that booth and go after his ass. That's the ultimate disrespect.

Totally normal behavior from a healthy organization https://t.co/ggef44WnBq

“Mr Tepper was simply “pouring one out for the dead homies” like they say. He loves and appreciates fans for any base and would never try to disrespect them” https://t.co/0m0HFyVw3C
