The Big BLFC Report
10 years ago
General
The first part might be a lie because I tried to go into too much detail, I'd never get done.
BLFC is the best. If I could only go to one convention in a year, I'd drop everything including FC just to go to BLFC. Let's face it, the Grand Sierra Resort as something almost every other convention lacks: Space! Even the dealers den had plenty of space at the center for a volley ball court, tables, and big props to play around with, and most importantly, great ventilation for those in fursuit. Most other con risk the danger of heat stroke should one dare to enter the dealers den in suit- not here.
It was a rough start as I flew in on Wednesday and arrived at one- they lost my luggage. I had a hard time holding back some F-Bombs while i provided my information for my baggage claim. If I could be sure anyone who would have handled my bag also worked for airline, I'd have felt a bit more confident but if someone per say a TSA agent was goofing around with it, that bag could be anywhere. Luckily that was not the case and I had my bag the next day in the evening just in time for the festives to begin.
It got even better when I got an invitation to wear
deezlberries' suit for a couple hours. Thank you both deezlberries and

squic captured a nice clip of some of my professional news casting action which you can watch on Youtube here:
Those two hours were the best having the honor of wearing a suit from a creative individual I've admired much of my furry life. Thanks, again Deezl. You've no idea how much I've fan-boy-freaked-out when I got the word.
Yeah, I did gamble as I'm used to playing slots at the Casino's near where I live. At first, it was $60 quickly down the drain. It seems the slots where set to "SUCK" mode on Wednesday and I was still irate from having a missing bag at the airline. It got better as the weekend progressed however.
kijanilion had a panel on Friday on how to play some of the table games at Casino's including Blackjack and Craps. The following Sunday, got all my money and some. I'd say me and the Casino broke even but it was hella' fun especially playing at the craps table discussing strategy with other furries and sometimes random strangers.
I made good use of the business center to print badges for
tristanthehusky and squic making good friends with lonely lady running the business center solo over the weekend. She was so excited about all the activity going on in the hallway just outside so I had it a point to visit her in suit so she could get pictures. Obviously she was the wife of one of the Casino's security guard as one pulled me aside to thank me for doing that. Dawww.
All in all, it was a rough start but it got better real fast and I mellowed out real good. So mellow, that a lot of my art stamina is replenished and I'm looking forward to what I'll experience at a smaller con next weekend. Furlania, here I come.

Also cool knowing my first con is one of the most rad ones. Great meeting you! :D
