Our story
From Bring Back the Buzz to the Crown Club
Once upon a time, our mission was clear: restore balance to Charlotte and bring back our beloved Hornets team name. We did it together. Charlotte fans made it happen, and we were proud to help lead the charge.
Now we're taking the next step in Hornets fandom: TEALgates before every home game, road trips that paint other arenas teal, and a club of 500+ fans who never watch a game alone. This isn't just about celebrating the past. It's about building the future of the Hornets community, together.

When and where are TEALgates?
Before every Hornets home game at The Local (105 E 5th St) in Uptown's 5th Street District. Food is served about 90 minutes before tip-off. TEALgates are open to every Hornets fan, and members eat free, so bring your membership card. See the TEALgate schedule.
Where can I watch Hornets road games in Charlotte?
Our Where to Watch page lists Crown Club–friendly bars around Charlotte that put the Hornets on for every road game.
Do you sell Hornets gear?
Yes. The Crown Club store has shirts, a sweatshirt and a hat designed by the club and made in small runs, so styles sell out. Orders ship in 7–10 days, and unworn gear can be returned within 30 days. Shopping for a Hornets fan? Start with the gift guide.
