Post Anthrocon report
10 years ago
General
Going to Anthrocon was pretty smooth, drove from Wichita Falls, TX to a parking spot outside of Dallas Love Field, which the flight from there to Orlando, FL took off at 4:05PM. Then the flight from Orlando, FL took off at 8:40PM. Got to Pittsburgh just before midnight, had
whitedragun7 pick me up from the air port, and got to the hotel just past midnight (around 12:45AM).
I stayed with
Chakat Bloodstripe,
starryskychakat,
Chakat Whitetail, and
Chakat Dreamspirit. Everything went pretty well, except it seemed that room service never bothered to clean our room, and them weird thing where they were trying to authorize Dreamspirit's credit card for every night, and the money shi had in there wasn't on hold, so we got locked out of our room and we had to pay in cash instead for two more nights (I just had to give an extra $30)
People I also got to meet:
Klaussthewolftaur,
Gildedtongue,
Voxian and
catnamedFish,
Reve,
Railrunner,
Midsnow,
Fringe,
chakatNightstar,
Goldfur, Boyce Kline,
SethTriggs,
Sailoranna,
chakatswiftrunner and hir mate,
czgoldedition and
t3hjonneh, and
wolf2Tails with a Dallas fur. Interesting thing was, I randomly ran into 2Tails after the end of the con and found out him and the other guy had a flight that was the same time as mine, at 6:40PM. They left on time. I didn't, wound up being delayed until 8:05PM. Then as I landed at Baltimore at 9:05PM, the plane had to wait for an open gate for half an hour, which made me miss my flight to Dallas by 10 minutes. I did get a new flight from Baltimore, but it left at 7:45AM this morning, got to Houston at 9:35AM (local time), then took off for Dallas at 11AM, and got there at noon, and finally got home at 2:45PM. Twelve hours later than I should have been.
I randomly ran into Gildy on the shuttle bus one night. I did record the fursuit parade, but then accidentally deleted it. Also, other people I saw/took pictures of: Susan Yura (as Ming Chun) and Rin the Dragon (See http://www.furaffinity.net/user/rinthedragon/ ), Tobias,
Gillpanda,
desertgunbunny (Talliy),
chakatthriceborn,
chakatwindshear and
