Zombie Walk

**mdraven380** · 10-13-2009 08:33 PM

This past Sunday I participated in the 4th annual Monroville Mall zombie walk! This is located in Monroville PA, USA. Monroville Mall is where George Romero filmed the movie Dawn of the Dead in 1978. The walk is also a food drive for the greater Pittsburgh food bank. The official food tally is not in yet but the zombie count is 1,934! We beat our own record from last year. Four years ago we made it into The Guinness Book of World Records with over 800 zombies. Now it is considered World Zombie Day and other Cities all around the world participate.

Sounds fun. I've considered doing the naked pumpkin run but for some reason they arrested a bunch of people last year and that just isn't my cup of tea.

That reminds me of Michael Jackson, did alot dress up based on his Movie clip?

Sounds like it would have been wicked to see..

Any pictures? I mean we can't see their faces right? So, I think that's ok to put up... as your not showing "people" as themselves..

I only saw 1 person dressed as Michael Jackson.
I can try to post some pics on my profile page. I seem to have a difficult time posting more than 1 at a time. I just can't seem to get them to load up.

Update:
Our Zombie walk raised over 2,000 lbs of food for the Greater Pittsburgh Foodbank!
I'm so excited about this!

I'm a Pittsburgh native also.

Now I live close to a town called Phoenixville where the original Blob was filmed.

Every year they have a festival commemerating the event. It's alot of fun.

They did a zombie walk at my university (UF) right before Halloween. A few weeks before someone in the IT department made a fake website about emergency procedures for a zombie outbreak. I was walking to class and all the sudden a bunch of bloody zombies started stumbling across the lawn. After the initial shock, I sat back and enjoyed the show. That's great that the walk raised so much food!
