Aug. 23, 2010 (United Press International) -- The Carolina Panthers management has started the conversation about revamping Bank of America (NYSE:BAC) Stadium or building a new one.
The Charlotte (N.C.) Observer reported Monday the NFL club's president, Danny Morrison, has discussed the idea with Charlotte City Manager Curt Walton at least once.
The Panthers play in 14-year-old Bank of America Stadium, which has 74,000 seats, including 150 luxury boxes and 11,000 club seats.
"You would have to think we're in the middle of a normal NFL stadium cycle," the newspaper quoted Morrison as saying. "The two options you would have somewhere down the line, in 10 or 15 years, would be a major renovation or something new."
Morrison, who took over as team president last September, said no planning has started for a major renovation or new facility.
The Observer said 13 of the 32 stadiums used by NFL teams are older than Bank of America Stadium, with two of those receiving major overhauls recently.
