Blogging Around Town: Tennis vs. Apocalypse

Warning: The following images contains humorous depictions of the living dead and exaggerated scenes of violence that may offend some readers.

zombie-tennisWith the Fall breeze in the air and Halloween just around the corner, I thought it might be fun to add a little festive “creep factor” to the site and I couldn’t think of anything more appropriate than Tennis vs. Apocalypse.  With little information available on the site itself, aside from a list of the 25 contributors who have joined in thus far, all one really needs to know is that it involves tennis, monsters and the end of the world (not necessarily in that order). These are some of my favorite submissions, but there’s loads more over at the blog.
