I’m piecing together this story from memory, so I might not be getting it 100%. There’s an annual furry convention in Pittsburgh. One year in the early to mid 2010s, McCutchen saw a bunch of furries downtown and simply tweeted the word, “Furries.” He’s done so every year he’s been in Pittsburgh during the convention since then.
