I like the pie because it adds a bit of absurdity to it. Not that the whole concept of zombies isn't absurd in in the literal sense, but it adds a WTF touch to it. Similar to the zombie driving the race car.

Those folks on "The Walking Dead" would be screwed if the zombies just learned to drive race cars.

Package arrived!
Packaging took a hell of a beating in transit, but all plaques appear to be undamaged. They also sent along samples of their other sizes, so of course now I want more...
Our house is a shambles right now as we are remodeling the games library. Nearly 1000 games and books plus shelving is all being stored wherever we could find space in the house so I cannot set up tables for proper pr0n as of yet.
Now if the US Post Office/Canada Post can get off their collective duffs and get my sample chip to Gear, I can get the chip portion executed...

They look amazing PZ, MSK has done it again

Now that the plaques are in, the Zombies are kicking off their world tour!
The First stop will be New York in early September, provided someone is willing to host two Zombies for a game, and in return they will receive a Zombie World Edition sample plaque. So if you're in the NY area (preferably Brooklyn or easily accessible via train), and willing to host, PM me and we can hammer out details.
Tagging known, active NYC residents:

I'm in Brooklyn! Doubtful I can host a game, but at the very least I can take you to an underground club. Rake is extortionate, but the games can be fun. @SixSpeedFury?
And I can also give you plenty of food/restaurant suggestions.

September MIGHT be doable, provided the missus and I are up and running in our new place by then once the wedding is done. As far as accessibility, to reach me from Brooklyn via public transportation you'd have to take a train, and then a bus, and then walk. So yeah, you'd get your exercise in lol.

There's a reason there's not as many fat people in NY as there are in Nashville. Since we're both former Chicago residents, we're well versed in multiple forms of public and semi-public (Uber/Lyft) transport.
Melee attendance is practically confirmed if the dates hold. We'll hit the Food and Wine Fest in Miami and then drive up to the Melee.
Food suggestions are always welcome! So far we have...
DiFara Pizza
Nathan's Famous (We'll be spending an afternoon at the Boardwalk/Aquarium)
Baba's Pierogies
The Clover Club (also a good name for a hot-stamp chip)
Brooklyn Bowl
Blueprint
Tone Cafe'
Peter Lugers
2 days at the US Open
Plus a mystery Dinner, Brunch, and evening at a jazz club, courtesy of Mrs. Zombie's college friends.
Even with all that, we still have 2 lunches unplanned, and everything is loosely planned (i.e. we're not married to anything except Peter Lugers and the US Open dates).
The US Open is a great time. I went once and it was an all day event lasting until after midnight.

DiFara's confirmed great--get a whole pie, and make sure it is the sicilian.
Any time in Manhattan or only Brooklyn?
In Brooklyn:
Best turkey sandwich you'll ever have at Henry Public, which is also a cool old-school bar.
Defonte's in Red Hook has one of the best heroes ever: roast beef, fresh mozz and fried eggplant. Get it with hot peppers and "dipped."
Mile End Deli for smoked meat reubens.
Roberta's in Bushwick--made famous for their hipster (and fantastic) pizzas, but also has fantastic food.
Al Di La - perfectly executed Italian food. Real Italian, not red sauce Italian (which is great too, but you've got that covered). Also only a few blocks from me.
Delaney Barbeque - Williamsburg. NYC is in the middle of a BBQ renaissance, and I know I'll hear about it, but we give the rest of the country a run for its money.
Katsuei - Sushi. Also near me and outstanding sushi.

Steve Jackson Games is one of the companies Mrs Zombie and I used to do work for, but this is a different zombie/artist.
@Poker Zombie - timeline for receipt/application/pr0n of relabeled chips and plaques altogether?

The chip I sent to @Gear for measuring/labels was swallowed alive by US or Canadian Post. Still hoping that it pops up somewhere before sending off another one, as I didn't buy a lot of spare chips.

Not a far trip but if you ever want to get them in play at the Post we can do it.

I even have a blind structure for their use that would probably get the BGinGA seal of approval.

A little trivia: The umbrella drink the Zombie is holding on the T100,000 chip is a Bahama Mama
Since I've never had one, I thought Saturday would be a good time to try one out.
Interestingly enough - I also learned for the first time what it's like to be "girl-drink-drunk", which is why no pics were posted until Tuesday.

Oooooh. Milky or sweets in alcohol can make for a horrible morning. Ok to drink those in moderation.
I learned a long time ago that there are only two things you mix with good liquor. Ice or one of the components of ice.

Sweet set up. Bringing anything to the DCS to show off. I'm a fan of using plaques. That 100k plaque is sexy

I can absolutely being the set along since I'll be driving. As offered in this thread, anyone that hosts the Zombies for a night of poker will be entitled to a free sample set of the plaques (upon request) as part of the Zombie World Tour (supplies are limited).
There will be no samples of the chips unfortunately - they're in really, really tight supply.
