PortConMaine 2011

Although I was unable to attend AC, I was able to go to PCM with a pawful of friends. It was so much fun! ^-^ I thank God for the means and time to go, and for friends willing to invite me.
Now, about the convention... I don't even know where to begin! XD
In the three days the con took place, I've seen over a thousand (no exaggeration) of cosplays, ranging between Mario, Zelda, EarthBound, Final Fantasy, Pokémon, Minecraft, Team Fortress 2, Dragon Quest, Portal, Sailor Moon, DragonBall [Z,GT,etcetera]/Naruto/lots of other anime series, and certainly over a hundred more references, including a Mr T. :P I also crossed a pawful of other furry fursuiters/partials. Speaking of which, this year I've gone in my fursuit as Elreydelleon "Fox" (unofficial surname), as I have at RMFC last year, and also brought along Foxy this time. :meow:
I had many a comment about a fox holding a fox, and had several pictures, hugs, pettings, pokes, pawshakes, high-fives, "awws", a group hug, a glomp, and a video taken of others and I dancing to Caramelldansen (speedycake version). :D
I had lots of fun playing a few video games, board games, and attending various panels, such as Craftsmanship and memes.
There was also a game universally known as Boffa, which was only played on the final day, as it had rained the first two days. T.T What more so, I was unaware the con was going to play at all. Ah well, maybe next year. :)
But what really made it all worthwhile was making other congoers happy, particularly the children. There was one particular kid who gave me like five or six hugs, one each time he saw me. I actually even had a couple females squee at me, which was totally unexpected, lol.
All in all, I'm definitely looking forward to attending next year, should I have no other plans then. ^-^
(Accumulative stats for my own personal record that one might not care about)
Day 1~ 31 hugs, 30 photos, 1 video
Day 2~ 11 hugs, 1 group hug, 7 photos
Day 3~ 9 hugs, 5 photos, and a friend
