Bank of America Stadium upgrades fan experience

The Carolina Panthers have upgraded their in-stadium fan experience for the 2012 season by adding more than 460 Wi-Fi access points that will bring free AT&T Wi-Fi Internet to fans everywhere, from concession stands to seats and concourse areas.

Located in Charlotte, North Carolina, the Bank of America Stadium is a 70,000 seat facility and home to the Carolina Panthers, the Atlantic Coast Conference Championship game and a number of other college bowl games and special events.

The Bank of America Stadium is now equipped with more than 460 AT&T Wi-Fi access points. Fans with a WiFi enabled AT&T smartphone or tablet can easily and automatically connect to the AT&T Wi-Fi network, without any setup or login required. Fans with other Wi-Fi enabled smartphones or tablets can connect to the AT&T network by logging in.

"Fans come to Bank of America Stadium looking for a fully engaged game day experience, and with the availability of AT&T WiFi throughout the venue, now they can combine the excitement of cheering on their favourite team with having real-time stats, access to popular social media and all their favourite apps right at their fingertips," says Danny Morrison, president, Carolina Panthers. "Adding AT&T Wi-Fi to Bank of America Stadium will continue to enhance the fan experience."
