What happens when the Sci-Fi Channel visited ConFurence 4 in 1993? Some surprisingly positive media coverage. Archive copy provided by the household of the Prancing Skiltaire.

Ah, memories, memories! How many of the fans who were not named can be identified? Michael-Scot McMurry, Tim Fay, "Dusty" Rhoades, Ed Kline & Kishma Morales (in costume as Jim Groat's Equine the Uncivilized and Red Shetland), Jerry Shaw, I think Scudder Kidwell in the unicorn costume ... Thanks, Prancing Skiltaire, for making this bit of Furry history available to all of us.

Memories can now be easily shared with everyone, thanks to the Internet. (It helps to have a duet partner, though!)

cool :) I was meaning to post this last week and asked Spotti (the uploader) to say more about it, but he wasn't able to respond.

My take away from this? NEVER interview the con-com on Sunday of the convention... Goddess, I sound like a Dalek on low battery...

Oh, and by the way, I'll mention it here: January 2014 will mark the 25th anniversary of the first furry fandom convention, ConFurence Zero.

The mustaches. It all makes 20 years ago seem even longer ago.
