Wedding Guests Get A Surprise When A Cow In A Nearby Field Turns Out To Be A Furry Taking Pictures

Of course when you have an outdoor wedding you always run the risk of nature crashing the party, like when a deer decided to crash a wedding and take a nibble out of the bride’s bouquet, or this grizzly bear that brutally mauled a moose in the background of a wedding at Glacier National Park.

It happens.

But wedding guests got quite the surprise at a wedding in Oklahoma when they thought a cow had plopped down in a nearby field to watch the ceremonies.

Well it turns out it wasn’t a cow at all, but actually a furry in a cow costume with a camera who ended up taking photos of the wedding.

But this particular furry was just laying out in the field as the wedding took place nearby, giving the impression from afar that it was a normal cow, until it stood up and started taking pictures of the ceremony.

That’s gonna be a great story that the bride and groom can tell their kids someday. And maybe it even opens up a whole new market of wedding paparazzi. Don’t want the photographer in the shot? Have them dress up like a cow and lay down in the background. Has the furry community explored this business opportunity yet?

CoffeeJunkie,

…have any of those people ever seen a cow before???

I mean probably, it’s Oklahoma, how in the world were these people fooled, then??

Muscle_Meteor,

Remember kids, this has the potential to go very wrong…

Imagine you were fully convinced that you were living a life like the Truman Show, you’ve been in therapy for a while now and you’re doing well, so well that your therapist suggest you should go to your cousin’s wedding because they think it would be good for you, you arrive and everything is fine, you’re having fun, everything feels real and no one is pretending to be anything but themselves, then you go for a walk and find a cow in the field, you stare at this creature just living its life, it gives you piece of mind that everything is gonna be alright, you can get past this sense that everything around you is fabricated, then the cow stands up on 2 legs, grabs a phone out and walks off to their car while yelling out to someone “DID YOU GET ANY GOOD SHOTS?”…

The real friends were the cows in the background that we made along the way.

Keep on being fun, furries!

webghost0101,

Weird article, state that everyone online must know or has heard about x. then admit you yourself dont and had to google basic information to write the article. Is it just me or am i right to expect better from journalism to properly research topics they talk about.

“If you’re not familiar with furries (you must not spend much time on the internet), they’re basically people who dress up as animals and even create their own animal “characters” called “fursonas.” (At least according to Google. I’m admittedly not well versed in the furry community).”

Zorque,

Well, your first mistake was assuming anyone on the internet writing an article about furries (without having some investment in the community) is a journalist.

chicken,

I’m skeptical the story here even happened. There is no verifiable information presented, just a picture of a guy in a cow suit in a field and a vague blogpost about the wedding of unnamed persons in ‘Oklahoma’ somewhere. Is the author of the blog part of the wedding party? Is this just a repost from a facebook chain letter type thing?

While I won’t be personally holding WhiskeyRiff.com up as an example of journalistic excellence, I’ve seen similar levels from established newspapers who should know better. At least they owned up to a lack of knowledge, most news outlets would do the quick Google and never mention it, just letting the content of the article demonstrate their lack.of understanding on the topic.

webghost0101,

Havent thought of it like this. Thats a fair perspective actually.

My comment is definitely coming from frustration with modern new sites in general. Nothing personal against WhiskeyRiff they simply where a involuntary representative/example of the bigger issue.

Yes, it’s all part of the push for “content” and the quality if often secondary. The enshittification of news.

I think it’s fair enough to say that it’s common knowledge what a furry is but that the community’s jargon/argot isn’t.

That they didn’t know the term fursona but looked it up for the article demonstrates research in my mind.
