ZonieCon

ZonieCon was a small furry convention in Tucson, Arizona, chaired by Scott Malcomson and held in 1998, 1999 and 2001 at the Best Western Executive Inn. Promoted as "The Con That Would Not Die", it was named for Zonie the Coyote, a character created by Michael-Scot "McMoo" McMurry that served as its mascot. It held many events unusual for a furry convention, including model rocket flights, "Art Spelunking" in a storm drain, an ice cream social and a "Meat Meet" of free burgers and ribs. An attempt to restart it in 2011 at the Hotel Tucson did not go ahead.
