and the green grass grew all around: Only at my school

...will you see a game of Humans vs. Zombies. How did I find out about this? I was walking on campus and saw some people with green bands on their arms. Uh what's that? I asked my boyfriend. He nonchalantly told me it was for the Humans Vs. Zombies game. A little confused why he knew about it. haha He went on to explain that the humans wear their band on one arm and the zombies wear it on the other. He had heard about it from some of his friends and saw an "attack" the other day. Okay.. So I did a little research:

Humans vs. Zombies (HvZ) is a game of moderated tag commonly played on college campuses. A group of human players attempts to survive a “zombie outbreak” by outsmarting a growing group of zombie players. They must defend themselves with socks and Nerf guns to avoid being tagged by the Zombies

Sound a little crazy? It does to me. But hey, I'm not one to stop them from having fun! Meanwhile, I was entertained by watching groups of people running around with Nerf guns.

Would you ever play a game of Humans vs. Zombies? Anything like this ever happen on your campus?

Morgan said...: Oh my gosh... I wish they had done this on my college campus while I was still at school! I'm kind of obsessed with zombies... Well, maybe not obsessed, but I did read the Zombie Survival Guide in high school and when the author came to my college to speak, I HAD to go and hear him talk. I love zombie movies and if there ever IS a zombie out break, you definitely want to be in my group because we will live. =]; April 19, 2011 at 10:59 AM

Mere said...: They play this at my school too!!! I thought it was the stupidest thing although it was hilarious to watch people chasing others around campus. I know one guy who stayed in his dorm all day (skipped class and meals!) just so he wouldn't get tagged! Craziness!; April 19, 2011 at 4:15 PM
