anyone in the SF area going to this? Basically it's a 200+ man tag game.
Journey to the End of the Night is a free street game across the haunted cityscape of San Francisco this Halloween. Players sporting orange ribbons will try to make it through six checkpoints on foot or by public transportation, while avoiding being caught by chasers. Those who survive will be praised and feted at the end. Those who fall will become chasers themselves, rising in undeath to pursue their former friends and allies. It works like a race or derive that keeps breaking out into games of tag or hide and seek.
The game begins on Saturday, October 31st, at 7:00 PM on Steuart St between Market and Mission (across the street from the Ferry Building). No bicycles, no skates, no cars, no taxis. You may only travel on foot or by public transportation. Wear comfortable shoes, and bring water.
Prizes will be awarded for top finishers, best chasers and best costume.
I think they had about 5 of this before hosted in the last 2 years ago. I did some more research on this out of curiosity and it is somewhat like The Amazing Race, but with twists and only in one city.
I'm going with some IRL friends, this is going to be a blast.

amazing race? it doesn't sound quite as cool now. i thought it'd be more like pretending to be in a zombie outbreak. who decides who the chasers are btw?

The organizers have their own chasers. I think they'll probably ask for some volunteer at the beginning for chasers. Eventually most of the people will become chasers though. And that is essentially a zombie outbreak situation.
Suc, I earned my carrier by winning a racewar tournament a while back.
