Furball came back with a vengeance this past Friday night, as it blew through Stage 48 with hundreds of super hot bears, bear admirers, gogo dancers, amazing music and so much more to make for one incredible and memorable night.

This particular Furball was to celebrate the kickoff of President's Day weekend, where the event started at 11:00 PM and made its way all into the wee hours of the morning at 4:30 AM.  Regardless, this event always attracts some of the most spectacular looking dudes from Manhattan and beyond, making it eye candy galore for all of us (including me) who attended.

The eye candy was made that much bigger (giggity) by the likes of the amazing gogo dancers throughout the night, including Deuce Witherspoon, Matthew Scott, John-John Punski and many more.

The music itself was absolutely fantastic and kept the crowd going all night.  Two time Grammy nominee Hex Hector & New York’s Jared Conner did an amazing job each with their sets, and I am hopeful they are able to return for future events.  

What I particularly loved about this Furball, and many others, is that it is a welcomed invitation for all types of men in the bear community, with zero judgment.  Every body type was out on the dance floor having a good time, and enjoying the company of others.  It makes me extremely happy to see how the visibility and somewhat brotherhood of the bear community is really flourishing in the Manhattan area, and I hope this continues to build each and every event and year.
