Maybe it has something to do with the cheerleader.

The Carolina Panthers have arguably the dimmest future in the NFL. After
trading away several draft picks and their star wide receiver in order to
draft quarterback Bryce Young first overall, Panthers fans had hope that
Young could take the team to the top of the lackluster NFC South. That
hasn't happened.
With just four weeks to go in the regular season, the Panthers sit at an
NFL-worst 1-12 heading into Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons.
They don't have their first-round pick next year. They don't have many
stars to build around. They fired their head coach halfway through the
season. Despite playing in a division that will likely send a sub-.500
team to the playoffs, they were the first team in the NFL to be eliminated
from playoff contention.
Fans are getting fed up with the absolute incompetence shown from owner
David Tepper, and today, fans showed their disapproval...by not showing up
at all.

This is what David Tepper has done to the Panthers. @Panthers @NFL AT
LEAST LET THE FANS THAT ARE HERE COME DOWN TO THE LOWER LEVEL ??

How many fans were at the game today?
The official attendance numbers have not been released yet, but there are
rumors that the total count could be remarkably low.

What is attendance prediction for the Panthers game?
For perspective, the capacity at Bank of America Stadium is 74,867.
What is the lowest attendance in NFL history?
Pro-Football-Reference only lists NFL attendance data dating back to 1992.
So, excluding the 2020 pandemic season as well as the 1987 season which
was disrupted for three weeks when the NFL Players Association went on
strike and replacement players were used.
Since 1992 though, the lowest attendance in NFL history was on December
15, 1996. The Houston Oilers hosted the Cincinnati Bengals in front of
15,131 fans. The Bengals won the game 21-13.
This was the final home game for the Houston Oilers before they became the
Tennessee Oilers/Titans. Fans were likely upset at the ownership's
decision to move the team and did not want to support the team as they
left their city. Ironically, the second and third-lowest attendance games
since 1992 were both Tennessee Oilers games in 1997 – 17,071 and 17,737
fans in attendance respectively.
Did weather have an effect on Panthers fans?
Yes.
Not only are the Panthers almost an unwatchable team currently, but it's
even tougher to convince fans to support your losing team when rain is
coming down hard.
Per The Weather Channel, rain is expected in Carolina for the next several
hours and flooding is actually a possibility in multiple neighborhoods
around Bank of America Stadium.
How much were Panthers tickets?
During the week leading up to the game, tickets were going for as low as
45 cents.

Depending on where you look, get-in ticket prices for today's Carolina
Panthers' game ranged from about $0.45 to $5.

Bank of America Stadium had about 100 fans in it minutes before kickoff of
Falcons-Panthers.

Bank of America Stadium at halftime.
I know fans are going to the bathroom/getting food, etc….but don’t think
I’ve ever seen an NFL stadium this empty at any point in the middle of a
game before.
