Scenario Sundays - The Mall

So I thought I’d start a recurring theme here at Zombie Proofing Your Home. I’m calling it Scenario Sundays. Every few Sundays, I will post a new scenario and ask you questions about how you would handle the situation if you were in it. You are welcome to leave your run down of the scenario in the Comments section. However, any rude, demeaning or otherwise “Troll” like comments will be deleted.

Pretty much the idea behind this is to already have a game plan of actions you would/should take if you found yourself in one of these situations. Its like having a fire escape plan for your family. The likelihood that your home will be hit with fire is not great, but if it were to happen, you have a fire escape plan in place and know what to do (which can be hard to figure out if you are in panic mode). I don’t suggest emulating any of the these scenarios out in the real world. If you start running crazily through the mall or anyplace else, you may find yourself detained by the police. However, I do encourage you to reconsider your surroundings during every day activities. You should be asking yourself, “What’s the closest exit?” “What’s the most direct route out of the parking lot?” Its much easier to survive a disaster if you have a plan in place than just “winging it” when the situation occurs. When you plan you have an idea of what you want/need to do and are less likely to panic. And we all know that panic will be the greatest enemy you have when facing zombies.

Without further a due, here is our first scenario:

(1) You’re at the mall wondering around the main corridor on the First Floor below the food court (centered between any given store). Suddenly you notice some of the other patrons are moving slower and appear to have an appetite for BRAINS. What do you do?

I’ll post my breakdown next Sunday. You’ll be able to see my thoughts on this situation.
