New Orleans Halloween 2009 / "Largest Gathering of Zombies"
The multifaceted ever evolving troupe, The New Orleans Bingo! Show is spearheading the attempt to break the Guinness Book of World Records “Largest gathering of Zombies“. Up until recently, the USA held the record with 3,894 zombies in attendance. The record was topped at the Big Chill festival in Ledbury, UK in August with an incredibly close 4,026 people.
The Zombie sign-in table will be located in The Bingo! Parlour and YOU MUST sign-in to be counted. You can also find out the scoop on the rest of the unique and mostly New Orleans-based talent showcased in The Bingo! Parlour here on their blog.
“Slap on some monster make-up and bring your appetite for brains – we’re going for the record on Halloween! Zombies of New Orleans unite!”

Approved!
What qualifies as zombie get-up?
anything tattered or torn as far as clothing goes, it should look like you clawed your way out of your grave....
i think the make-up is the essential element.
alright! who is going to fly me from N.M. to NOLA so i can participate?
it's the things like this that would never happen elsewhere that make me
'know what it means to miss new orleans'
I'll be there, along with the rest of Noisician Coalition!
Do you have to have a VooDoo ticket? Or is there any way for Zombies w/o tickets to be counted?
Yes, unfortunately, you will have to attend Voodoo in order to be counted.
This is the only way to accurately count Zombies via the sign- up table located in The Bingo! Parlour.
