The Panthers have started a popular tradition of giving touchdown balls to children in the stands. The looks on the faces of the lucky recipients can’t help but bring a smile to even the staunchest Cam Newton critic.
Fox Sports interviewed some of the children and asked them to explain what it felt like to receive one of the coveted balls.
