Welcome to 'Panthers Stadium' (UPDATED)

National Democrats have repeatedly touted their stand against taking corporate money for their convention in September, and so it was striking to see two emails from the DNC host committee referring to the Charlotte venue where President Obama will speak as "Panthers Stadium."

It's the place where the Panthers play, but it's actually called Bank of America stadium.

A recent email from the host committee signed by former Al Gore campaign manager Donna Brazile urged people to win a trip to Charlotte for the event, which will wrap "Thursday night at Panthers Stadium with President Obama."

Another email in June made the same pitch about the stadium.

A host committee spokeswoman didn't respond to an email. But it's not like the stadium was ever called Panthers Stadium - first opened in 1996, it was Carolinas Stadium, and later Ericsson Stadium. Then the current corporate iteration.

UPDATE: A host committee spokeswoman called to say that the stadium is referred to locally that way and that they've used Panthers and Bank of America interchangeably. She said Bank of America was used in an email to the list in February, for instance. It's unclear if it's been used since in email solicitations, though it is in places on the website.
