This weekend i attended midwest furfest with my new gf and two of our friends from the haunted house we all work at. While not a furry, my gf made a bear mask for me. we saw a lot of really awesome costume pieces, like LED claws, different sets of teeth, and observed the mating rituals of asocial cosplayers while getting drunk with the Ghostbusters.
Then this happened: http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/chicago-furry-c...ck-1478452
we spent four of the most godawful hours of sobering up i've ever been through in my life! we made our way across the street to an adjacent convention center, where after giving the place a thorough rpg sweep, found an unlocked kitchen that had a restaurant sized coffee machine, and a door that led to a huge hallway lined with enormous conference rooms. this was my fema moment because there were couches and ping pong tables in every room. our friend dressed as mario started to lead people in, and eventually there were a few hundred of us in there making a mess, passing out, and drinking coffee. eventually, the security guard noticed we were all piling in, and we were herded into a gigantic convention floor, where there happened to be a dog show, so there were dozens of dogs in blanket covered cages now howling at furries.
After resigning myself to pissing in a corner after not being able to find a bathroom without a line, we braved the cold to be one of tge first groups to get back in the hotel. when i woke up at 9, there were a group of furries dancing in a circle in the parking lot, then i remembered hearing some german guys talking about leaving their ecstacy out in their rooms.
