Zombies Take Over NYC! October 14, 2008

Posted by Ryan | Permalink | Comments ( 11 ) | TrackBack

This past weekend was the peta2 National Conference in New York City, and boy did we rock the Big Apple!

Attendees enjoyed talks and discussion panels on a variety of topics, including "how to answer the tough questions" and "how to help animals online", plus a visit from our special guest, MTV icon John Norris!

For many people though, the highlight came at the end of the day, when we headed to midtown Manhattan for a "zombie" protest against KFC!

Of course, what kind of peta2 event would it be if we didn't end with a nice one-fingered salute to "The Colonel"? Getting the message yet, KFC?

Yep, all in all, it was a pretty amazing trip! The visit also inspired me to want to start a New York-specific campaign called "KFC? Fuhgetaboutit". :)

Don't forget though, we still have a conference coming to the West Coast in less than 2 weeks! Will those crazy Californians and their neighbors show up the East Coast kids? Only time will tell! To book your space, click here.

See you soon!
