Cities excited for furry conventions because they bring shitload of cash
Can someone explain why furries are so rich?
>The buzz around Anthrocon has translated into profit for local businesses. Attendees have booked over 12,000 nights in the convention’s 21 partner hotels in Downtown, Station Square and the North Shore, and Anthrocon is collaborating with the Gateway Clipper fleet and Mega Cat Studios, a Pittsburgh-based video game development company.
>The four-day convention is projected to generate $21.7 million in direct visitor spending, VisitPittsburgh said.
>"It doesn't feel like summer is officially upon us until the fursuiters take to the streets of Downtown Pittsburgh," Andy Ortale, VisitPittsburgh’s chief sales officer, said. "Every year, we take pride in partnering with Anthrocon organizers to cultivate meaningful community bonds and collaborations that deliver real, enduring benefits to our city."
