This is Hurricanes Hockey
A lot happens in 10 years. Post whatever you want here (sports, entertainment, personal life)
I'll get us started:
-Barack Obama was barely into his 1st term as president
-Donald Trump was still doing The Apprentice
-Roy Cooper was NC's Attorney General
-Pontiacs were still being made
-Social media wasn't as prevalent as it is now (Twitter was still kind of an unknown, Instagram/Snapchat/Tinder weren't around)
-iPads were not yet a thing
-CDs, though not nearly as popular as they were in the 90's, were still being sold in stores (I guess they still are but when was the last time you bought one?)
-Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Tom Petty, George Michael, Prince, Scot Weiland, Chris Cornell, David Bowie, and many others were still alive, and some were still making tunes
-Flip Phones were still common
-Shopping malls were still relatively healthy
-Texas A&M, Nebraska, and Mizzou were still in the Big 12
-Maryland was still in the ACC
-Jake Delhomme was the Panthers starting QB
-Cam Newton and Luke Kuechly were unknowns
-The Panthers participated in Super Bowl 50
-The Charlotte Bobcats were still a thing, and Robert 'Bobcat' Johnson was still the owner
-The Atlanta Thrashers were still in existence
-Who the hell are the 'Vegas Golden Knights'? And how the hell did they make the Finals in year one?
-When did Seattle get an NHL team?
-Shaq was still suiting up in the NBA
-LeBron was in his first stint with the Cavaliers
-The Lakers were still winning championships, and their fans were/are still tools (mostly, at least the ones that invade Charlotte)
-The Golden State Warriors went from awful franchise historically to dynasty
-Cleveland ended their championship drought as a city
-The Cubs broke their curse
-The Atlanta Braves left Turner Field for Cobb County
-The Browns are finally starting to look like a legitimate team
-The Bills made the playoffs
-Raleigh has undergone a big transformation. Downtown is now awesome and the city has started to become more of a food/music/beer hub than it was 10 years ago
-Durham has also undergone a major overhaul. They too have become more of a food/music/beer city
-Charlotte still has shitty traffic, shitty drivers, and shitty roads, but at least we have light rail!
-The Checkers were still an ECHL team playing at the Spectrum Center
