We are also receiving reports of a zombie invasion in Memphis, TN. theogeo, Sean Davis, fearlessvk and Woody Wall have some photos from the scene. Personally, I’m quite horrified by theogeo’s photo that is captioned “the undead take beale”. Oh yeah, well not over my dead body…oh right, that’s the whole point.

Be careful where you do such things. There are those who believe that such things could happen some day and have armed themselves accordingly.

If you all showed up on my street, something very tragic might happen!!!!

If zombies take the streets, maybe somebody wants it.

But S.W.A.T. can do more realism for this party.
