Looks like some furries ended up on TruTV's "Hardcore Pawn" somehow.

Yep.

For those of us who are blind and/or don't want to watch a youtube video (which is removed, anyway), what is this? I can extrapolate from the name that a fursuit-pawning is involved, but that's about it.

The segment (http://www.trutv.com/shows/hardcore-pawn/videos/three-dogs-walk-into-a-pawn-shop.html) is less than two minutes long.
4 suiters and one handler go into the pawn shop, say that they're freelance mascots, and sell a couple bars of silver. Kody Collie (not the suit maker, a different Kody) is bouncy, makes dog noises, and tries to give dollar amounts with hand signals... everyone else more or less stays in the background. The woman working at the counter complains loudly about their smell more than once. That's about it.
I know a couple of these guys, and I believe they all just decided to visit the shop during this year's FCN and see what happened. They were paid in food and had no idea when the episode was airing, if at all. Some of the lines were fake - nobody was going to Miami - but I don't know how much was scripted. Never had a smell issue at all, and I went fursuit bowling with the two blue guys every month for almost a year.

Wait, TruTV completely made shit up? Color me shocked!
At least they got some food out of the deal.
