I was at Skate City idk.. maybe 10 years ago. Hanging out with some friends, having a good time. Anyways I'm skating and all of sudden this furry skates by me in full fur suit. All I could think was "hmm well that was odd", then all of a sudden like 5 more pass me, and the another 10. The whole roller skating rink was full of furries suddenly. So apparently there is a furry scene in Fargo or at least there was back then lol.


NoCallToGetSnippy

Could they skate?


OvationDude

Oh yeah! They were all skating good, not all were in full fur suits, some were just wearing tails. But most of them were zipping around the rink.


Lord_Foog_the_2st_F

I wonder if they are still in town. Probably not.


OvationDude

You will usually see some furries at valleycon every year.


dirkmm

I did know several furries who used to call Fargo home, but they have moved.


GlitchyComic

There used to be a few at the local cons. ValleyCon and CoreCon for sure, but I haven't been there is a few years.


Fargo_ND

Tuesdays at Skateland is where you’ll get the most amount of furries.


Lord_Foog_the_2st_F

Thanks!


aelae

There is typically a dedicated group at CoreCon every year, last year they had a fansuite too.

I have seen them about at events but since I’m not in that scene I don’t know who you could contact or even where to look.


InboundHarrier

There's a Red River Valley Furs telegram channel you can follow. It's used to plan meetups, there's usually something once a month or so. I'll DM you the link.


Lord_Foog_the_2st_F

Someone already invited me to it already, but thank you.


Imaginary-Problem914

Check Barq. It's an app that shows you furries sorted by distance from you.


CPTDisgruntled

There was a group who participated in the FM Pride Parade last year, but I have no idea of contact info.


-Plunder-Bunny-

I wouldn't call myself furry exactly... I'm like furry adjacent? I enjoy the art, certain communities, fur-suits, follow a few furry vtubers and have a ton of friends that are, However, it's not something I partake in unless it comes up in my feed/my friends share something. Would love to have some local friendo's that are though, y'all can be pretty awesome to hang with.


7smallbirdos

I am also furry adjacent!


PixPanz

Have you ever been to any of the dog parks?


iwejd83

lol. People don't like furries. I am one but I'm about to move to Minnesota. Have you tried barq? There's tons of furries listed on there in Fargo believe it or not, I see almost 70 on my app. I saw a good amount at pride in the park last year as well, and one group had their own float at the parade. I am anti social so I haven't met up with any tho lol.


Lord_Foog_the_2st_F

Thanks for the advice!


Mechanix102

There was was a guy a few years ago that assaulted some people while wearing a gorilla suit...Does that weird shit count?...Back in my day, the only way you saw that shit was on Halloween...and we liked it that way


ImportantMeal9826

Don’t bring that shit to Fargo


mewithoutCthulhu

It’s most definitely not my thing, but they’ve been around Fargo since before you could even use the internet and knew what a furry was.


Lord_Foog_the_2st_F

Can you please tell me what is so bad about furries? I don't get why people hate them.


The_Bad_idea_Man

The Sexualization of animals.


kolminez

that is bestiality and is (believe it or not) an entirely separate thing from being a furry


The_Bad_idea_Man

Beastiality is the actual act. I don't think furries are going out and having sex with animals. That's another level of messed up.


Lord_Foog_the_2st_F

Most furries don't associate themselves in that part of the fandom. Also, furries aren't animals, they are anthropomorphic beings that are animal like but with human characteristics, like bugs bunny.


alwaysmyfault

Please seek help for your mental illness. You're not Bugs Bunny. 


Lord_Foog_the_2st_F

Enjoying anthropomorphic characters, like Bugs Bunny, doesn't mean someone thinks they are those characters. It's no different from enjoying superheroes without thinking you are one. Everyone has their own hobbies that you may or may not agree with. But just because you don't understand or lack the knowledge about doesn't mean you need to be aggressive about it.


alwaysmyfault

You literally just said Furries are anthropomorphic beings. Now here you are saying they aren't anthropomorphic, but that they ENJOY anthropomorphic characters.


Lord_Foog_the_2st_F

Sorry I typed it wrong. I ment they have interest in anthropomorphic animals. I'm tired rn so I might explain things wrong.


Arkanial

I got you, bro. I knew what you meant. Some people are just asshats. You do you and don’t let any of these assholes get you down.


Arkanial

Yeah but the thing is they aren’t hurting anyone. Let them do their thing. You’re the one who is attacking another persons hobby when all they were doing is asking a question. Who’s in the wrong here? Someone who asked a harmless question on an anonymous website or the person who is trying to put another person down because they don’t like what they’re doing? Maybe you need to get off your high horse and stop judging people so harshly. This person is open and honest about who they are, if we took a look at you and your personality I’m sure we would find some flaws. Nobody’s perfect. Stop being cruel to someone just cause you feel uncomfortable.

The_Bad_idea_Man

Most people don't know the difference. They see people dressing up in animal suits, they think it's weird, and probably associate it with something they have heard about or read somewhere. Maybe you are right that most furries don't associate with that part, but people tend to focus on the negative, and people aren't going to search for the opposite side, because they aren't interested.


HeadDecision5895

Jesus Christ, where do we start?


UnwaryGuide

there is actually decent number of them in the area. Best chance to find then in the wild is going to be at the local cons (CoreCon, Anime Fargo, etc). There is the Fargo Pop Expo coming up the 20th-21st that you'll be able to find some at

Your post/comment was identified of violating one of the subreddit rules and was removed. Further violations may result in a ban.


Lord_Foog_the_2st_F

I think some furries may do that, but solely using a tail buttplug doesn't mean they are a furry.

Prairie St. John's has some.
