The following was posted Jan. 15:

 The Carolina Panthers kick ass from week to week at Bank of America Stadium, a stone’s throw from the Bank of America corporate Center. 

Every home game, the top of 100 N. Tryon St. (in Charlotte) is lit up in Panthers’ blue.

Bank of America is one of the top 10 employers in Charlotte. In fact, it’s a top five non-manufacturer employer in the state.

So it came as a shock to some Thursday night when the Bank of America corporate Twitter account posted this:

 Bank of America   @BankofAmerica

One for the (thumbs up symbol): Good luck to the @Patriots as they begin the hunt for a fifth championship ring. #PatriotsNation

What makes the post even more interesting, is that it was the only post supporting a team on the feed. 

A savvy PR move might have been to tweet pictures for fans of every team, as not offend, but that didn’t occur.

The fact is, BofA Chairman and CEO Brian Moynihan lives near Boston, has an office in Boston, and has been badgered about moving the headquarters to Boston. 

According to a Wall Street Journal report from November, Moynihan says there is no chance of that happening. Does this post show where the company’s true allegiances are?

Upon the spread of Bank of America’s pro-Patriot post on Friday morning, the Bank then sent this as a CYA:

Bank of America  @BankofAmerica

Time to dance: Good luck to the @Panthers and all of #PantherNation as the playoffs begin. 

12:00 PM - 15 Jan 2016

CYA, indeed!
