BLFC OMG!!
12 years ago
I'll be recovering from BLFC this entire week. It was so much fun and I'm definitely going to go next year!
We travelled by 12 passenger van from the bay area to Reno. I'm not sure what would have been cheaper--plane or van, but I had my suit in 2 action packers plus a bag for clothing. With 5 people int he van, we were able to shove all the fursuit cases/boxes into the back and leftover seats, so it worked out well.
We arrived on Friday at about 2pm.
I had reserved 2 connector rooms, but only 1 was ready. The hotel lost one of our carts--the most important one with all the fursuits on it! So we had to work that out. The bellhop was on top of it and he returned in about 15 minutes, which was the timeframe he gave us and had the cart for us.
Registration was fast and easy and there was no line! yayyyy. I got patron this year and the gifts were amazing--it motivated me to want to be patron next year too.
I had to go back to the front desk to check if the second room was ready. The front desk tried their hardest to make sure I was up to date and at the end of a 45min. wait, I had all the room keys I ever wanted and since I had to wait, they gave me a refrigerator for free.
I really enjoyed the open con space layout. I felt you could hang out and chill, play with the various things laying about, peruse the dealers den.
I really liked that the dances continued as long as there were djs and people on the dance floor. I wish I could have stayed awake longer, but it was nice to know that i could have popped down there anytime. The only thing I disliked, was the music choice. I'm not a huge fan of house, electronic, techno, etc. I know this is more fromt he dj and whatnot, but I wish there was more other types of music, such as industrial (which i know a set was played, but alas, it was in the early morning bit and I missed it :( )
All in all, I enjoyed myself immensely. I suited and met a lot of cool suiters and people, hugged a lot of people. Oh! The guy that staffed the fursuit headless on Friday was amazing. I can't remember who it was, but he was helpful and would hand out towels as soon as our heads came off and would offer assistance if needed.
