I've been interested in getting to one as well.
Mobility isn't an issue for me, as I have a car, but I live right in the middle of a -huge- mass of... erm, [political stereotype removed] minded people, which tends to result in a lower Furry population. So it's quite a distance to the nearest Furry, let alone Furry convention. Unfortunately, an unaffordable distance.
So... Furry-Con at my house next year?
I must admit, I'm a fan of the suits. There are pros and cons, but I'd wager that having fursuits there certainly brings the mood up. Plus the suits are usually furry, which is always a plus.
Hrm... has anyone ever seen a porcupine fursuit before?
