My Really Short AC Report

July 7th, 2009 (12:23 am)
busy

current mood: busy

As you've probably been hearing all over LJ today, it was another awesome convention. I won't be doing a lengthy con report because I can barely even remember what I did. I know my Thursday was spent wrangling the media pretty much the entire day... and then... it's all pretty much a blur after that.

Perhaps I was abducted by aliens and had parts of my memory erased.

I wonder.

Oh well.

Random bits and pieces:

  • We had super amazing Guests of Honor: Joe Harris, Ben Balistreri, and Bob Boyle. I got to see them all for a little bit while I was running around bringing things from Point A to Point B.

  • A new sandwich place (Cory's) opened across the street from the Westin. They apparently ran out of bread on Thursday feeding packs of hungry furries.

  • Standing up on the roof of the DLCC watching the fireworks with [info]rigelkitty and [info]kurradragon, and people in boats on the river yelling "Furries!" and us waving back and everyone just having a super fun time. Pittsburgh is just a really nice town.

  • Closing Ceremonies notes: Total attendance = 3,776, an 11% increase. We had 640 fursuiters in the Fursuit Parade (I got about 5 minutes of footage before my camera didn't want to do video no more, so I took pictures instead.) There was a huge group photo taken of them all in Hall C. $8,992 raised for the charity. We need to add the estimated price thingy back into the Dining Guide.

  • I tried one of the yummy Furnando's lasagna wraps and picked up a t-shirt. Had a ginormous cheeseburger and fries at Steel City Diner. OM NOM NOM.

  • Rigel and I tried to go to Big Mama's House Of Soul (at Penn and 16th) for dinner on Saturday (the place was recommended by AC attendees last year) only to discover ravenous hordes of furries had descended on the place and eaten everything and there was no food left. We ended up at Golden Palace Buffet instead.

  • I took lots of pictures of really cool fursuits and wish I had one. What's up with the folks dressing like Batman villains (i.e., Joker, Two-Face, Scarecrow)?

  • I was tempted to check out the Harris Grill based on their interesting furry-themed ad in the City Paper, but didn't know where they were (I found out later only a 30 minute bus ride, according to Google Maps). -=/ Maybe next year. How can one resist a brunch menu with an item called "I Can Has Bacon Cheezburger?" on it?

  • Events I attended (more or less): Opening Ceremonies (of course), Presenting Furry Fandom to the Public (part of it), Lupus in Tabula, Fursuit Parade, DJ Rigel's dance, Fursuit Games (part of it), Toonseum Presentation (part of it), Iron Author (part of it), Closing Ceremonies (of course).


That's all I can think of at the moment... I hope everyone had a great convention!

Man, Some People Just Can't Get Enough Of Me

Heh.

It's always interesting to find out That Guy Who Used To Be A Big Name In The Fandom1 still likes to paint me as Big Bad Xydexx long after everyone—including myself—has moved on to bigger and better things.

Living well. Still the best revenge. -=)


1 If anyone's interested, the reason I don't carelessly toss his name around (the way he still does mine) is because even if I did say who he was, most of you would say, "Who?" and to be honest, he's nobody of importance or relevance these days... he's just That Guy that squandered all his fandom fame, burned all his bridges, and is now angry and bitter at everyone else for his own self-inflicted wounds. And that's really too bad. But that's why it's better to be a silly squeaky pony than a bitter old dinosaur.
