Wow. What a blast.

3,390 members. And 453 fursuits in our fursuit parade.

Simply astonishing.

I'd like to thank my hard working Operations Staff for helping make it happen, as well as the Dorsai Irregulars for doing their thing. I'd also like to thank our hard working volunteers who came by to help us set up and tear down. You guys rock, and are one of the reasons why Anthrocon Operations went so well this year.

I'll post a full report later, but for now I'm going to read through the post-con surveys.

Oh, you didn't fill one out?

Please tell us what you liked, and what we can do to improve. Thanks!

You'll get my survey thoughts over a nice congratulatory drink sometime in the near future ;p

Actually, I'd love to get you and samurai_bastard together later this week some evening, so he can pick your brain about lawyerly stuff. You may shove said drink down my throat then. :-)

Giza,
I had a great time and I was very happy to have a few cocktails with you and to meet your folks. *hugS* I hope we can hang out again soon. For sure before next year.

3390 people huh? I bet next year we may hit 3500. 453 suits in the parade, that beats all records for fur cons correct? The amazing part is, there were actually more suits there, they just wearnt all in the parade.
