A Furry Saves the Day

Shortly after my experience with the "non-believers", I heard a shriek of delight from somewhere behind me.
Then I heard the pounding of feet running up the pier towards me.
Before I knew it, I was getting tackle hugged by this fine fur.
Really, what are the odds of meeting a furry at random? Especially one wearing full Tigger regalia and a con badge?...
The moment captured here is one of the high spots in my suiting experience.
Seeing her bounce around and breathlessly explain to her friend what a fursuiter is really made the whole day worthwhile.
For some reason, we ended up singing "Twist and Shout" and skipping down the pier hand in paw. Her friend just watched in amazement.
I thanked her profusely for her enthusiasm and support. As I left, I overheard the beginning of that conversation that we all dread as she endeavored to explain to her friend what a furry is.
And why she is one...

Hmmm, maybe I wuz set up...
pier waiting for me...
*loves being stalked*
great pictures.
Greg in not a furry.
Greg loves talking to random people.
Greg would talk to a pile of rocks if he thought it would talk back.
Greg loves to see people's reactions to my fursuit.
When I can suit no more, Greg and I head out for a beer and laugh our butts
off at all the pictures of the confused public.
Thank you for all the years of friendship, Greg.
You are now famous amoungst the furs...
with a dash of Arizona every month.
And yup, we gotta suit!
and once at the Swallows Inn. They rock!
I'll be sure to tell them you sent me next time.
*checks band schedule*
faves and I was planning to see them again.
I'll just have to figure out how to do it in suit...
And so true!
Who knows where we will turn up next?
That is now my favorite video clip.
I could of used that kind of backup...
Eeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
my video camera,
While in Redondo, just head over to Santa Monica.
Check out the boardwalk.
You're bound to see a fursuiter there...
And thank you!
Thought I had lost my touch...
Home to fruits and nuts like me...
The locals would be so entertanined.
As would I!
You think I'm some kinda guy in a big dog suit or somethin'?
And yes, you are here to entertain me.
And you have done an admirable job thus far.
Amazing. I still can't believe it....
I'd love to meet a furry at the most random place sometime 8D
I guess they already knew...
And my mom thinks my suit is cute >.<
That'd work...
Being furry isn't the kind of thing you want to advertise 'cause it needs soooo much explanation. But so far the reactions from people I've told have been positive.
And I'll pass your kind words on to Greg. He is a loyal friend for sure!
That's why it's so exciting when a furry pops up in RL.
(or what passes for RL for me..)
And I'll make sure to pass on your beer gifting to Greg!
But I don't live here. I'm at a friend's house.
'Cause he has beer
