Charlotte Hornets History

The original Charlotte Hornets franchise joined the NBA in 1988 and, thanks to players such as Larry Johnson, Alonzo Mourning and Kendall Gill (and later, Glen Rice, Anthony Mason and Jamal Mashburn), enjoyed substantial success in the 1990s, starting with the 1992–93 season. Owner George Shinn moved the franchise to New Orleans in 2002.

But the NBA returned to Charlotte for the 2004–05 season with the expansion Bobcats, led by owner Robert L. Johnson, the first African-American majority owner of a team in one of the four major sports. In 2010, Michael Jordan took over majority ownership of the franchise, and in 2014, Jordan's team re-adopted the Charlotte Hornets name after the previous New Orleans Hornets became the Pelicans.

During the 2017–18 season, four-time All-Star Kemba Walker became Charlotte's all-time leading scorer, surpassing original Hornet Dell Curry.

    Treated like a queen

    by Sherrock on 4/1/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    I'm handicapped, walk with a cane and was treated like a queen. They provided a wheelchair and actually pushed me to my row. I row. I was shocked and very pleased with how handicapped people were treateed. I have nothing negative to say about my experience. Thanks

    Golden State Warriors and Hornets Game

    by Dereka on 4/1/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    I enjoyed the Golden State Warriors and Hornet game. I don't like when security was rushing my son to leave when he came to help me pick my things up.

    Hornets are fun!

    by B-ball on 4/1/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    I love going to Hornets games. Good vibe going on at Spectrum. The guys are playing hard. And occasionally get an exciting win. Lots of good entertainment with the dance squads & half-time etc. The staff are all helpful & friendly. It’s definitely a fun evening. And I’m very optimistic about next year.

    Charlotte Hornets and NBA need to provide value for cost

    by Sirepmils on 4/1/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    $550 for three nose bleed seats are ridiculous ( bought directly from Hornets). Average person can’t afford to go attend too many nor want too when not winning.

    Best experience

    by Special on 3/18/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    The game was amazing. The view from my seating was amazing. The food was over priced, I mean for 1 hotdog it was 5$. Other then that I had a great time.

    Not Good, Not Bad

    by Todd Youngblood on 3/18/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    First experience at this arena, brought my 75 year old father to see the game for is Bday. Pros - Very helpful Staff, made sure he used elevator, kind and courteous. - Clean Arena, Easy to Navigate - Lots of fan entertainment with Dancers, Hugo Dunks, Cheerleaders (Dad liked the girls!) - Jumbo Tron helped both of us see things better. -Cons - The leg room was way too tight, - The vertical incline of section 208 Row "O"made me wish we could have gotten lower seats. - There should be a designated rideshare pickup area. That was a challenge for him. - Hornets lost to the Suns but they played a good game and at least we had a good outing.

    Awesome game

    by Cyndi on 3/13/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    It was a lot of fun being at the 'BeeHive"to watch and celebrate the Hornet's win against New Jersey. The arena is of great size such that even when you are in the higher seats you are able to enjoy the game experience. The atmosphere was enjoyable for my family of 4. I highly recommend attending at least one game.

    Good game, Loud, Concessions need better planning

    by Experienced event attendee on 3/12/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    Parking was easy with a 12 deck garage across the street. Entering was a breeze. Seats were easy to find. The game was good. The audio though is loud and their on purpose echoing, double echos so it sounds like a bunch of loud noise. Concession Menu boards have tiny lettering..needs a bigger font with rolling slides that have pictures This building has little to zero information on Concessions food ingredients. If you have a gluten allergy, good luck, vegetarian, good luck.. We walked both levels and asked the guest experience counters, they gave us a 6 week old screenshot of a text that said…we have salads and maybe gluten free buns here and here. Nope, no one had it. They had 6 weeks from that original text to provide their staff with a list of solutions…nope. That turned the event to a near zero for the member of our group with an allergy. It’s not hard to accommodate vegetarian or gluten free in concessions food. I got cold fries. The burger was alright. Big money for a souvenir cup, but no refills. Time to look for a new F&B partner. One who knows how to plan a menu. Their provider services many venues in this region, they should be better. I’m not a grumpy spectator, I worked in 3 NHL Arenas, 2 as Concessions Manager, a football stadium, 2 ballparks and 3 mid size arenas. I speak from knowledge and experience. Plan ahead, maybe eat elsewhere before you go, at lease until they catch on and make it better.

    Impressive

    by Jtdisneymom on 3/4/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    Friendly staff upon entry. Super clean facilities…the bathroom attendant was working proactively each time I went in. The game itself was fun with giveaways and entertainment throughout . It never disappoints. Food was delicious and easy to order (despite being very expensive). We highly recommend.

    Hornets Have Given Up

    by Daddio on 3/3/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    Aside from everything costing an arm and a leg it was a lackluster game. My son is a Bucks fan which is the only reason we went to the game.

    Love The Hornets Experience

    by Stingray on 2/10/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    Great experience when coming to the Spectrum Center. I love the live atmosphere each time I attend a Hornets game. The food is delicious. I also enjoy purchasing the Hornets memorabilia.

    Had a great time

    by Jordan and Will on 2/8/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    This arena is just too steep and not friendly for folks that are even partially mobility restricted. Our seats were on the very top row. The climb up is hard for folks trying to carry concessions, and very challenging for those that have even mild mobility problems. The coliseum on Tyvola road was much nicer for spectators. I do like having the arena in the central business district, but the darn thing needs to be flattened out. We attend multiple events a year here, but we enjoy the arenas in other communities better. Food choices are great, service at some stands is weak, they run out of pretzels and fries too fast, especially during half time. The food itself is surprisingly good. All of the staff, including the ushers, the security, everybody is just as nice and welcoming as can be.

    Lakers vs Charlotte

    by Jaz on 2/8/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    I would’ve gave a 5 if we didn’t have the experience we did. I brought this gift for my husband. He is a huge lebron fan and he drove 4 hours to see this game. He got to the game and the entire Ticketmaster was done and he could not get in the game and I tried calling but could not speak to anyone. Luckily the worker at the stadium was dealing with many customers that was going through this and was able to find his tickets from the order number and was able to text him the tickets to get in. I’m truly upset at the fact that ticket master would crash leaving so many people to miss out on an event they paid for if the stadium workers weren’t able to work. My husband got to finally see Lebron play and idk if I’ll be ordering from ticket master in the future.

    Terrible Sound System

    by KB on 2/8/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    All we could hear the entire game was the rattling of a busted speaker. I would have rather not hear any music or announcing than to listen to the rattling of the speaker in the upper level all night. Do better spectrum center.

    Super Friendly

    by Joseph on 2/1/24Spectrum Center - Charlotte

    The one thing that stood out was that the staff at Spectrum Center were amazing. Every single staff member we interacted with was great. Super friendly, super energetic and so helpful when needed. Probably the most genuine and friendly staff that I've seen at an Arena.
