Two Panthers cheerleaders face charges
ESPN.com news services


Two Carolina Panthers cheerleaders who allegedly were having sex with each other in a bathroom stall at a Tampa, Fla., nightclub were arrested and charged early Sunday following a run-in with patrons and police.

According to a police report obtained by the CBS TV affiliate in Tampa and the Charlotte Observer, Angela Ellen Keathley and Renee Thomas were arrested following an incident at Banana Joe's, in Tampa's Channelside district, at 2:10 a.m. ET.

In the police report, witnesses claimed Thomas and Keathley were having sex with each other in a stall when other patrons grew angry that the two were taking so long in the bathroom.

Another woman waiting to use the bathroom got into an argument with the two, and Thomas hit that person in the face, according to details of the report posted on TampaBay10.com, the CBS TV affiliate's Web site.

Keathley, who was escorted from the nightclub, was so drunk she could barely stand, the report said. Police described Keathley as rude and belligerent with police.

When Thomas was arrested, she gave police the name of another Panthers cheerleader -- Kristen Lanier Owen, the Observer and TampaBay10.com reported. Thomas, who was charged with one count of battery, might face additional charges for lying to police, once they confirm her identity.

Keathley was charged with disorderly conduct and obstructing or opposing an officer.

Other Panthers cheerleaders bailed Thomas and Keathley out of Hillsborough County jail later Sunday morning, TampaBay10.com reported.

The cheerleaders made the trip to Tampa on their own -- the squad performs on the sideline only at home games. Panthers officials at Sunday afternoon's game said they were aware of the report, but declined further comment when contacted by the Observer.

According to the Panthers' official team Web site on NFL.com, Keathley is a registered nurse and second-year member of the TopCats. Thomas is listed as a student at the University of North Carolina-Charlotte and first-year member of the cheerleading squad.

Renne gave her name as Kristen.

I'm sure Kristen is thrilled about the fact that millions of guys across the country have been looking at her pictures. :D

Looks like the Panthers website crashed due to this weekends bathroom activity.


Cheerleaders fiasco drowns official site

The Panthers whipped the Buccaneers yesterday, but surfing the web, you'd hardly know it. All a fan can find on the internet is talk about the two Panthers cheerleaders who were allegedly having sex in a Tampa club's bathroom stall the night before.

But what is worse, is that you can't get online to Panthers.com to get anything related to the game. It's crashed, and been replaced by a Panthers.com graphic for the time being. No quotes, no notes, no stats and no video highlights.

According to IT Professional Donavon Yelton, "A "hit" in web terms is the loading of a piece of data on a website. This might be a html or a javascript application. There can be several "hits" per page load, depending on how complex the website is. The more power you have behind your webserver (CPUs, memory, etc.) and the more load-balancing techniques used (co-location) will affect how many "hits" your website(s) can handle each second."


"Webservers are usually "load-tested" to see what capacity they can handle, but when something abnormal happens that drives traffic up well beyond capacity then the webserver is brought to it's knees and usually will not let anyone on," explained Yelton.

In other words, too many people trying to connect at one time. Sex scandals involving cheerleaders can do that to a site.

One panthers source confirmed that the domain had over 40 million hits this morning alone.

"It simply can't handle the extra traffic," Yelton said of the servers handling Panthers.com.

There is no word on when Panthers.com will be back online and fully functional.
