Fursuiting at E3: Day 1

Meep! =^_^=
==E3 Report: Day 1==
E3 is a beacon of American high-tech creative culture, thrown in the middle of two major landmarks (LA Convention Center and Staples Center)...and lots of people. So there was LOTS of security. There’s security that’s with E3, LA Convention Center's in-house security, a third-party security group they hired for the occasion, and LAPD in squad cars, motorcycles, and bicycles patrolling the surrounding streets constantly.
It's kind of sad, due to the realities of post Boston and other recent mass-violence events.
Thankfully, one of the security guards remembered me from WonderCon and got the other security peeps to back down when they started freaking out at me; full face mask and all that.
A few other attendees also recognized me from WonderCon which I found surprising. Cause I only suited for ~90-110 minutes near the end of the last day at a convention FULL of cosplayers and a few other fursuiters but they still managed to remember me. I took that as a compliment of sorts.
I had a couple of ‘hail Hydra’ moments meeting and talking with dormant furries attending the convention. We had nice chats and I made some furry contacts. ^_^
I terrorized the selfie booth, photo bombing people using it several times.
I got some laughs when I mimed the head guy at Nintendo announcing the winners of the first Smash Brothers tournament on the Wii U on the big screen TV.
Overall, I suited for about 2 hours after romping around the streets and surrounding areas and had a great deal of fun interacting with the public.
