Motor City Furry Con attendees were evacuated from the Ann Arbor Marriott in Ypsilanti this morning after a threat.

This is not a drill, Peppa!

Motor City Furry Con attendees were forced from their hotel rooms at the Ann Arbor Marriott Ypsilanti at Eagle Creek just before 9 a.m. on Sunday after a threat forced an evacuation for the second year in a row, according to convention officials.

The Motor City Furry Con, a Michigan convention for those who appreciate the anthropomorphic lifestyle, took to social media on Sunday to announce a full hotel evacuation at 8:49 a.m. The post encouraged attendees to gather in the exterior golf course or leave the premises, but not loiter in vehicles.

    Look, I’m not a furry and the whole idea of it confuses me to no end. But at the same time can’t people just let other people enjoy what they like? Just let people be themselves for goodness sake.

      That’s not what you told me last Saturday! I wish you would have made up your mind before I called the hotel! 😤 😜

        Jokes about bomb threats aren’t exactly cool even if you’re “thick skinned” and “humor filled”. That’s not a trigger warning thing, it’s tactless to joke about harming people when acts of terror are becoming a common occurrence.
