Thousands of people — many dressed as foxes, bears, pandas, and other fuzzy creatures — were evacuated from a suburban Chicago hotel early Sunday morning after a chemical leak that police are investigating as a criminal act.
The leak — of a chlorine-containing gas in the Hyatt O'Hare Regency Hotel — sent 19 people to the hospital, including several attendees at the 15th annual "Midwest FurFest," an animal fandom convention. The hospitalized individuals "complained of nausea and dizziness," the Midwest FurFest organizers explained on their website.
"The Rosemont Police Department determined this was a criminal act and began investigating it as such," the Midwest FurFest statement said. The event is a giant convergence of furry devotees who "come together to celebrate furry fandom, that is, art, literature and performance based around anthropomorphic animals."

A country where the adults are still children. There is no hope, example # 34,922

Dude!

Chlorine gas is some nasty stuff...
Even weirdos wearing fake animal suits don’t deserve this....
Chlorine gas is no joke, correct?
Life imitates art .... “CSI” (the original, set in Las Vegas) did a “murder at the furry convention” episode.
I’m sure it was a VRWC. /s

I suspect Hudson Bay Company operatives.
Everybody looks down on furries.
Someone really doesn’t like the song “What does the Fox say”.
On a more serious note, this should be investigated as an act of terrorist, lot of people could have died if the Chlorine was a little stronger due to how many people attend these events in a confined areas with limited exits like a hotel ballroom.
Sounds like a good start.
Weirdos.
Met one last night at the bar.
Cute lil girl but, I couldn’t get last her tattoos and the two diamond piercings, just above her eye teeth.
Made her seem like she had more teeth and at times made her look like maybe they were nostrils.
She was a completely cute girl too and I was digging her laugh.
Don’t know why they do that crap.
How do they know the gas didn’t come from INSIDE the costumes, those things look HOT and not in a Sexy way but as in a “OMG I am melting” way...
Trekkie on Furrie violence?
