This wasn't just the first year I've been to Anthrocon, it's the first convention I've been to period! Even though I was only there a single day, there was so much going on! Loved it!
I can consider myself as an Anthrocon Online Attendee because I was watching everyday live stream and every single Kite’s video. Like if you are also same as me😅. P.S 1:07 wow, I am genuinely surprised that you know about my religion traditions😊. Every muslim should visit Mecca for Hajj at least once in a lifetime. And you know this year’s Hajj pilgrimage was right about 10 days before Anthrocon😅.
Someone once told me that AC is Furry Mecca and it's stuck in my head ever since. In a way, they're totally right since it's just the best experience there is in terms of conventions. Thank you for watching, and I hope you enjoy the future videos too!
Someday in the future I’ll visit Anthrocon. But my family doesn’t have much money and we live so far away. It’s going to be one of my life goals to visit Anthrocon at least once.
I've never been, but I would love to go. Also, for that sticker pole, I'm glad Kage mentioned on the last day for the future, NEVER put the stickers on the poles because each sticker is a $250 fine the con has to pay.
Yeah, it's crazy. I hope AC starts a charity sticker wall tradition or something. Even Pizza Parma had one inside but the footage I took of it was out of focus.
Ahhh there’s me at 2:48! I got so excited to see what AC was all about since it was my first time attending this con and it was honestly the best time of my life. Made so many new friends and felt more confident about myself! I’m so happy you are capturing a lot of those great moments here for all to see! ^^
Great video. And yes, I will attend next year. I won't be using my DOD flights though, but instead will be flying with an airline. Yay!!! See you all there...
I would highly recommended attending Anthrocon. It is the best run convention that I have experienced and the connection that it has with it's host city, Pittsburgh, is something that I have not seen in any other convention One of the highlights for me as a fursuiter is the moment that I walk through the east lobby doors onto 10th St and just seeing the residents of Pittsburgh come out and support the convention. It never fails to bring tears of joy to me. It makes the 2.5 hour wait in Hall C worth it. The block party afterward is awesome as well. I will continue to attend AC for as long as I am able. AC can be overwhelming if its your first convention. I highly recommend going with friends and rooming with them. IT will give a base to work from and you can make new friends at the con. Expect to deal with lines for reg, main events, the fursuit parade, and the elevators in the Westin. Don't expect to get a close hotel if you're not paying for a super- or ultra-sponsor badge or room with someone who does. Those are negatives, but the atmosphere of the con completely offsets them in my view.
Agree with all these points, especially paying for sponsor to secure a hotel room and the long lines at reg. But since those were common things to every convention, I figured I'd look them over and focus on the positives. This is all great supplementary information, and I might consider dropping it in if I do another one of these videos!
@@Kite Oh I totally agree with you, Kite. Anthrocon has become my favorite convention and It's earned a permanent spot on my yearly con schedule. I just wanted to point out potential downsides if one attends the con with an attendee badge. I have paid for a supersponsor badge both times that I have attended so far to avoid the lines, with exceptions of the Westin elevators and the fursuit parade, and to book a room at the Westin. Thank you for recording so much of the convention. I missed floor wars and the dance competition during the convention as I had other plans. Being able to watch them through your videos has extended it for me. I'm CoastHusky, the tall grey and white husky fursuiter. One of the highlights for me of attending cons these last two years is seeing you there.
I hope we can figure out something that is a good alternative for stickers so that people will stop putting them on city and hotel property. Like something set up specifically for stickers -^-
I’d so love to go to AC some day. But I’m in Australia and the travel down there are so expensive. Even flights to LA even. And that’s the only destination in America they do direct flights from Australia. And even that, I need to consider if I would rent a car to drive to Pittsburg, catch an Amtrak train or get a flight transfer from LAX to Pittsburg.
Well, there's no way you're driving from LAX to to Pittsburgh, that's literally like a 10 day drive. Maybe you should do a longer trip and visit the US overall though!
I want to go to cons so bad but I have a phobia of people in mascot costumes 😢😢😢 Don’t know where its coming from, but it sucks being a furry and not being able to go to the best place for a furry.
It seems you have Masklophobia. It's an irrational fear of costumes and/or masks. This phobia is more common in children, but adults can also develop it. I'm not a professional in the mental health field, but I would ask you: Do you remember any past/recent experience involving a costume and/or mask that was scary, unsettling, overwhelming... maybe "too powerful"? Probably it's an unsolved trauma (a very intense and negative experience that set a "before/after" in someone's life) that began during one or more of these interactions. You don't have to answer if you don't want to. Think about it and of course if you feel the need, seek for some professional help. Phobias can be overcomed. And it isn't something to be ashamed of: we all need help from others and our brain and heart (figuratively speaking) can be ill, just as any other organ. Good luck and don't give up. Everybody deserves to be happy and feel safe.

It's like reliving the con I wanna cry
Don't be sad because it's over, be happy that it happened!
@@Kite wise words
9:05
Kite jumpscare. Be warned, super scary
You never know where I might be, my special ability is to record people's memories without them noticing me it seems.
@@Kite truly an omnipresent being with a camera. Everywhere and no where at the same time
Furries say hello to me! ✨✨✨✨
Helllo:3
1:18 a purple giraffe 🦒!
It's Zarafa!
Wow I'm first and I would go if I could!
Maybe you can go someday, I hope!
I need to lay off the sugar. Wait, I don't eat sugar :D Great vid!
What I'd give to have some of your energy, I don't know how you can keep it going all con long!
Keep up the good work kite
Thanks, will do!
Can’t wait to see you at AWU next!!
Say hello if you see me at AWU!
@@Kite I’m definitely planning to! 😊
8:13 The purple and golden cat is a part of the fursuit fam I am in
Cool.
Great video!
Omg that pizza place is also not good XD i see the meatball sub is still the saddest meatball sub i ever seen XD
I'll admit, the pizza was better last year! Though, at midnight it's as good as it gets when everything else is closed haha
They also offer wraps as part of the dog bowl promotions. I liked the chicken quesadilla wrap if it helps
I'm flying internationally to go to AC this year! I'm exited but also scared haha
Hope you have a great time!
I hope we can figure out something that is a good alternative for stickers so that people will stop putting them on city and hotel property. Like something set up specifically for stickers -^-
Other cons have sticker walls that are donated for charity.
every year.
For sure, if I could pick only one convention to go to each year, it'd be Anthrocon
Omg. My little brother is the thumbnail for this video 😭
My condolences, I'm sure they were delicious

You Question About Go To Anthrocon?
I Will Go To There No Matter What Because I Like In Anthrocon Feeling Like Having A Million Friend
Looks like I know where I'll be heading next year, Bayern Munich Jersey and all.
I love that zee was there
Cool
I'd like to just go to a convention period. Saving up for one right now so maybe sometime in 2025 I'll be able to go to one.
AAAAAAA I'm the one feeding the dragon (my fiance)😁 8:46
Do you have to have a badge to go to the convention with a fursuit?
(Btw this video was awesome)
Yes, you need a badge to access the convention areas.
SEE YOU NEXT YEAR ANTHROCON JULY 4-7 2024 YOUR FRIEND ROCKY THE FOX
