Anthrocon 2011 Post Con Report (Part 2)
14 years ago
Okay, now that I'm back home and somewhat more rested than when I wrote my previous report, I can write something with a little more substance.
Well, like I said, this was my first AC and it was absolutely amazing. I arrived in Pittsburgh Wednsday afternoon with my friends
and 
after having a few flight delays due to to a plane having a broken navigation computer. After checking into the hotel, we decided to take a tour of the hotel to get our bearings and get something to eat at Cory's with our other room mates 
and 
Slowly but surely, furries began inundating the entire city block as the con got underway.
I got lots of great pictures of the town, hotel, and dealer's den, as well as a ton of pics of fursuiters that I'm going to have to sort through to weed out the blurry ones (one thing about photographing furries in their natural habitat...they NEVER STAND STILL :P I need a camera with a faster shutter speed, lol.
When the dealer's den opened to the public, we got a couple of very cute badges and lots of "trinkets" as Sobo likes to call them, lol. I even bid in the art auction and won me a nice original Skulldog painting :)
Loved the masquerade and my hat's off to everyone that participated in the dance competition. You guys rocked and tore that stage up! I love to dance, and perhaps someday I'll be good enough to be up there with you :)
Sunday night was by far, the funnest night of all. It seems I met so many more interesting people that night than all other days combined. I danced until I thought my legs were going to combust, and then hung with
as we both went to go cool off and hit the vending machines.
As everything came to a close, we reluctantly retreated back to the rooms to get a few hours of sleep before having to head back home the next day. The flight home was long and gruelling, as we had yet another long delay (first and last time I fly Delta). The only thing I don't think I will miss about Pittsburgh is the food and its prices. I'm finished with eating any variations of sub-sandwiches for the next 6 months, lol.
In closing, Anthrocon was probably one of the most unique experiences of my life, and I can't wait till next year to do it again, so I can see all my friends again, and make even more.
As for now, I think I will host a small post-con party this weekend for my closest friends to help us fight PCD ^_^
