Yet Another Charitable Zombie Walk, But Unfortunately Associated with ‘Dead Island’
This particular charitable Zombie Walk I’m not sure the ZRC could have gotten *entirely* behind since it doubled as a game launch event for notable Evil Anti-Zombie game ‘Dead Island’:
Zombies aren’t usually known for being the most charitable or fun loving monsters, but come this Labor Day, a group of zombies will be just that.
GameStop is sponsoring a “zombie walk” on Labor Day to celebrate the release of the new zombie horror video game, “Dead Island,” while raising money for a local charity, the Center for Courageous Kids.
Zombies aren’t known for being charitable? Has this Cameron Koch fellow ever read our website? Here’s a hint, Cameron, try looking at the ‘Zombies Doing Good’ tag here on the blog and rethink that position.
Also, the ‘monster’ jab really hurts feelings.
At least, as well as trying to ‘celebrate’ this awful milestone in Anti-Zombie gaming, the event was to raise funds for a good cause:
GameStop will be taking donations for the Center for Courageous Kids throughout the night, as well as having a silent auction in which all proceeds will also go to the center.
The Center for Courageous Kids is a nonprofit organization based out of Scottsville where children with medical challenges can enjoy the camp experience. The camp’s goal is to uplift children by providing memorable, fun and safe experiences at no cost to the families, according to the center’s website.
Sigh. I dunno. These days there are so many charitable Zombie Walks that you might well be able to attend one in your area WITHOUT the Living Supremacist game.
I guess it’s ok to attend events like this in the future, and maybe try some outreach amongst those waiting in line for the ‘game’.
This one was in Bowling Green, Kentucky on Labor Day. More information at the link.
