Fandom's Favorite Fursuit Fracas 2009

The third annual Fandom's Favorite Fursuit Fracas is organized by Exile Huscoon, Rhett Foxcoon, Sarge Abernathy, and Seddel Cougar. The 2009 tournament includes 326 nominated fursuits, spread across 16 regions. The regions were named after island nations found in the Caribbean. To narrow down the competition to 256 to fit the bracket, randomly assigned preliminary matches were held before the bracket was filled.

Like years previous, the tournament met its share of controversy as well. During the second round, Dieter posted an image of himself engaging in a crude sexual act with his competitor, Blanko; Ember Komodog would go on to remove both Blanko and Ember from the tournament, causing Dieter's disqualification. Participants whom had been voted out over Ember's suits were asked to rejoin the competition in his stead.

Due to clerical errors, both Twilight and Ochosi were advanced into the second round after much deliberation. Fan favourite Takala was not entered into the competition this year. In the end, newcomer Frisbee's dramatic rise up the charts was cut short in the final round by Yippee Coyote, who went on to claim the title. Beef Jerky and Leo rounded out the top four.
