Mets freaked out by furries...

This is sorta off topic but pretty f-ing hilarious.

Apparently Anthrocon 2009 is in Pittsburgh the same week as the Mets.

Ok, so really it's the Mets reporter... but I'll bet more than a few of the players are freaked out too.

I just took a picture with a person who was dressed like Ralph Wigam as a Beaver

Yes, folks, this is what happens when the O's are out left, and I'm at work on the Friday before 4th of July.

4th of July fireworks arrive early

I have a friend who is in Pittsburgh for that convention. Honest to goodness furry. It’s easy to make fun of them as a class of people because there is something kind of ridiculous about the whole thing, but if you meet them in the real world otherwise they’re pretty nice people and you’d probably never even know.

The idea of this crowd in the same hotel as professional baseball players is really making me laugh.

Brilliant

Thank you for the link. The raw video link on the story is just plain creepy.

I love how they claim that furries have been around since the dawn of civilization. Prostitution might be the oldest business, but dressing up like a cartoon raccoon and running around a hotel like an idiot is the oldest hobby.
