There’s plenty of Panther Pride on display right across Penrith, but Wittima Drive in Glenmore Park may just take the cake.

Multiple residents have decked out their houses in Panthers gear.

The street has been unofficially renamed ‘Panthers Drive’.

There’s plenty of Panther Pride on show in the street.

“The last few months have been rough with lockdown so we decided via our street’s group chat on messenger that we wanted to decorate,” resident, Debbie Healey said.

“It’s been an incredible source of joy for us and it’s been great to have so many Panther fans drive and walk past.”

Residents are ready for the big game on Sunday night.

Ms Healey said they are pumped and have their plans sorted for the big dance.

“To have the Panthers play in back to back grand finals is a dream come true,” she said.

“We will do a COVID safe BBQ where we will enjoy picnics on our front lawns before going inside to watch the game in our own houses.”

There’s no doubt who these fans are cheering for.

Penrith fans will be hoping their side can earn redemption after last year’s Grand Final loss to Melbourne.

It’s the first time Penrith and Souths have met in a Grand Final.

Locals are riding the Panthers wave.
