This looks sweet, I want to do it:

It's a Walking Dead zombie obstacle course at Petco Park. Finally, I'll be able to see how I would do in the zombie apocalypse.

I didn't see - are they allowing live ammo or is it going to be another wussy rubber bullets scenario?

I wonder what variant you get? Is it the 1:200? If so, it would be worth it just for that.

If that is the case, then it will be worth it just to get the variant.

I'll do you proud, Chiclo. They say no weapons, probably a California thing. :(

I will do all I can to survive...... including "Otis-ing" someone if need be.

One concern I have is that these zombies will be moving faster than the ones on the TV show.

Maybe, maybe not.

Maybe they'll be slow moving zombies, as is correct. They just mentioned that a brisk walk or slow jog would be needed to outrun a zombie.

I would think they'd be the same as those ones they had walking around SD in character a few years ago at the con, if you remember they were in the way when walking around the sidewalks everywhere.
I am selling "nothing" on ebay-yet.

OT a bit, but the weirdest thing I saw at SD last year was some dude dressed like an old lady riding about 15 mph down the sidewalk in a motorized wheelchair with some guy dressed like a mad scientist chasing after him. The wheelchar was catching air going over bumps.

I'm here!

I'm at the Hyatt. Cruised around the convention center a bit, might meet up with a recent friend this evening for a bit.

Also, I got the last little thing I needed for my costume.

Yes, I'll have a costume this year. And it's awesome.
