Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry helped the Carolina Panthers start Super Bowl 50 with a literal bang. The Panthers brought in Curry to be the team's Keep Pounding drummer and the reigning MVP took the job quite seriously. 

Hitting the drum four times, Curry then motioned for the crowd to get on the feet as he yelled out "Let's go!"

The Panthers immediately ran out on the field after Curry's drumming.
