MFF 2023 Final Day

I usually consider Sunday the last day of any MFF a day for things to calm down. But OH Brother that didn’t happen.

After what I consider a rather good breakfast at Denny’s. Recently I heard some criticism over the quality of their meals. I can honestly say I didn’t have a bad one. They hit the spot every time will be back. Amazing the number of furries who made their way to Denny’s. Surprising enough they only saw 2 or 3 fursuiters. Including my friend.

On to MFF, which during our stay was an Uber ride, 5 mins and your there.

We did the usual things but we wanted to see the Autism Panel

Autism in The Furry Community: An Overview

Presented by James as James

I try not to judge people and or furries. But really WTF?!!! What was it about people scared to use gender neutral restrooms and a sexual type I frankly never heard of before. This was the bulk of this panel. I thought this was going to be about Autism and the everyday problems…. Not this.

A Panel should not leave you wondering WTF did I hear.

After this I am avoiding any panel hosted by James as James

On the other paw

Plug and Say Hosted by LunaTheCute was amazing

It was a panel where you could honestly promote yourself. You were given a chance to sit before an audience and be interviewed. It was GREAT!!!

Yes they applauded me, and every card I left was taken.

Everyone who was called felt better afterwards including seeing an amazing fursuit

We wanted to see Joining The Furry Tech Mafia panel, be we were 5 minutes late and the panel room was FULL

Sadly that leads us to The Closing Ceremony and OH MY!!!!

Every seat was taken

We had 15, 547 which is just shy of a 2000 jump in attendance

But that wasn’t all

The charity donation is always interesting. They present a check this one was for $100,000 for the record the most money they ever raised during the convention. Then they sold 2 standees that were featured at 2 hotels. One was even taken by this one hotel, that raised some more, then the matching funds pledge by the staff and an anonymous donor and OH MY.

In total and I am going what has been publicly announced

Live Like Roo received $185,758.31

The 2nd highest donation in furry convention history… for the record the 1st was held at a previous MFF.

Everyone was in tears of joy.

One last report tomorrow
