Well this was amazing. About 23 people showed up. 3 of us had suits and it was fun as hell.
It was interesting to see all the different reactions. The only REALLY scary one was when this 6 foot 3 inch guy who looked about 250 LBS of football player came running at me, cell one against his head and one arm out stretched. I thought he might clothes line me. Nope. He just wanted a hug. WOOO!
A got a lot of whistles and cat calls though and it was very fun. We started off walking from the parking lot down to the Echo Aquarium park area where we tried and failed at throwing a Frisbee around. I play my fat paws. They are made for hugging, not throwing some type of small plastic disc.
After we walked around the Open market where a ton of people wanted hugs and to have their pictures taken. The only real negative thing was when 3 black guys walked by and made the comment "I bet there is a N**** in there." Almost wanted to slap them for just an ignorant comment.
I got asked a ton what type of animal I was. Cat, wolf, dog, Pokemon. Only after I pointed out the stripes did people guess skunk which is close enough. Half points for half right.
Anyway, This is something I would do again in a heart beat. So many people smiling and the kids were so happy to see something so cute walking around. I think the whole event really made some peoples days.
