Fur Cons

[SierraTheWolfe]

When you become a fur staff for a fur con... all hell breaks loose... believe me... sweatdrop

Fur Con 09 worse case of run and scream like a mad fur...


Reason, I have Fangirls... soo many... crying

I've never been to one......Probably because the only major city that holds them is on the other side of the state.

Let's see...To date, I've been to three cons, AC '07, Eurofurence 13, and Eurofurence 14.

AC '07 was my first con ever. Man, was it overwhelming XD Just so many people in one place, I honestly didn't know where to look first. But, I loved every second of it.

Though, I will say this...As fun as AC was, I discovered about 20 minutes after I got to EF 13 on that Wednesday, I prefer smaller cons of about 600-700 people. Makes it a little easier to socialize XD

Will I go to another? Oh, hell yeah. I have a friend up in Colorado, so I'm defiantly going to try to get to the Rocky Mountain Fur Con next year, and, if I can scrape up the cash for plane tickets and such (like a rental car or something) I'm going to try to get to EF 16, too. Until then, there's always furmeets...At least, once I get back to Tucson XD

If you're concerned about not having money to shop... don't be.

I kept myself reasonable at Otakon by not carrying more than $20 in cash. That meant I could buy a sandwich and a bus ticket and taxi fare, right, but kept me from going hog-wild at the con itself.

In total, in cash I probably spent $2 at the con. In credit card debt (which I pay off immediately), I spent $40 for a nice steampunk-ish pocketwatch.

I suspect it's the same at furcons.

Anyway - when I've been to cons, I spent most of my time either shopping or chilling with friends. Only made slightly awkward because one of my more interesting friends there, who is also stunningly attractive, is also a lesbian.

This is true. Limit yourself if you're worried about spending too much. It really goes for any con.

I went to Anthrocon the past 2 years, since I live in Pittsburgh now :3 AC is just a big ball of fun. I didn't really spend any money aside from getting in, but Scrapper spent a ton on plushies for his kid, and he got us each a badge this year.

Best memory? Have to be this year, I finished my Umbreon fursuit and got to wear it most of the time I was at the con. They were giving out these green badges to suiters and I had been told they were all out by the time I got there, and I was kinda sad about it. But then I was wandering around in suit on.. Sat I think.. and Rukario was at the info desk, and he apparently saved a few and he gave me one. It was cool smile

But I have taken to collecting 'official' badges from cons I go to.

Also: Dragon*con. Not Furry specific, but quite a few furs there this year, and it's really just a blast. I loved it.

Coming back from Rainfurrest today. Got a decent amount of art on this trip and all of it is within guidelines to share here on Gaia once I get home.

Been actually getting more clean to suggestive art lately than actual porn. Ah how one's tastes and preferences change of the years.
