I live in North Dallas, a block from the big toll road here. Just on the other side of said toll road, on the same street as me is a tallish building, tallest in the general area, at least. If I walk out to the street I can see it, maybe a 10 minute walk to it. It's a Panda Energy building, with a giant panda near the top. They've been there for years in it.
Or at least it was. Drove by it this week and noticed the panda was gone. Everything was gone. For Lease signs everywhere.

THE PLOT THICKENS!
Put on a bowler hat and a fake mustache and go snooping.

Not TNA related per se but could trinkle down to TNA possibly. If they aren't making as much money as they were before than things will be hit with the budget cutter and that includes TNA, even if they were barely in the black would still be on the chopping block.

Aww man, I loved driving by there and imagining Abyss walking the halls in full gimmick begging Janice for more money. Of course having to explain why I would start laughing like a madman out of nowhere to people was never fun.

Time for the TNA Fire Sale Blowout. Everything must go and no offer refused.

I know nothing of Panda Energy's books, but this could be major...or moving into a different building down the street.

I wish this could have lasted a few more hours so the stupid C&P sites might be able to pick up on it like "PWMania.com: IS 'PANDA' GOING EXTINCT?""

Thanks guys.
Looking up a couple of things, though. Their old building, which was just them, was over 80,000 square feet. They relocated to the top two levels of someone else's building and are now taking up 39,000 square feet. Half their original size.
Hmm...

A lot of big corporations HQ's are in shared buildings.

I don't own a bowler hat and I don't understand why you would try spreading such a terrible, horrible lie like that. Honestly, not that big a deal, just found it interesting. Downgrading their size by half was what stood out. Maybe they were only using half of the old building, dunno.

Is there any chance that they just decided to move their HQ without telling Dixie because they were tired of pretending nobody was in every time she came to visit?

Hell, *this* Carter family did the same thing to my older brother once. He went out of state while working with the college basketball team he managed and we packed up and moved while he was gone. Without telling him.
