Ya know, some odd umpteen years ago before I even knew what a furry was, I joked about the idea of sports team mascots using their costumes to hide their identity if they wanted to go fight crime (that or steal somebody else's). The idea of somebody dressed as the Easter bunny stopping robberies with defibrillators he got from a hospital especially amusing.
That was then.
Apparently my little goof ball fantasy was eerily prophetic.
