A Severed Pig's Head, a Friend's Dead Body and Other Things Not to Bring to a Soccer Game
By Matthew Hall - AOL NewsYou can add the dead guy at a pro game in Colombia last weekend to a list of crazy behavior by soccer fans at games. In the now infamous story, fans in Colombia stole the body of a murdered friend from a funeral home and took his corpse to the stadium to cheer on their favorite team -- a whole new twist on Pro Zombie Soccer. Christopher Jacome, 17, was shot and killed on Saturday while playing soccer in his local park. The following day, friends took his coffin and carried it into the 42,000-capacity General Santander Stadium in Cucuta for a match between Cucuta Deportivo and Envigado. It ...
'Zombies Ahead,' Warns Electronic Road Sign in SC
By Steven Hoffer - AOL NewsFor anyone who doesn't recall the driver's ed section on avoiding undead life forms, you might want to steer clear of South Carolina for a few days. "Zombies Ahead," "Watch for Hunters" and "Be Alert for Tanks" are the three warnings that drivers on Lancaster County's S.C. 160 recently encountered from two seemingly tampered with electronic road signs, the Rock Hill Herald reports. The pair of highway signs, contracted through construction company CR Jackson, were intended to alert drivers of upcoming night road paving scheduled to begin March 27. YouTube South Carolina drivers ...
USDA Has Beef With Zombie Jerky
By David Moye - AOL NewsIt's hard enough marketing snack foods to zombies without the U.S. Department of Agriculture being persnickety about the wording on the label. That's what Aaron Rasmussen of Harcos Laboratories, a Los Angeles-based maker of novelty products and food items, discovered last summer when the company decided to create Zombie Jerky, a line of beef jerky designed specifically for zombies and the people who love them. It's an idea that seems, like the average zombie, a no-brainer. Harcos Labs Harcos Labs, an L.A.-based novelty products company, is hoping to swallow the burgeoning market ...
'Pat the Bunny' Gets Zombie Makeover
By Monica Garske - AOL NewsIt takes a lot of guts to remake a classic. Guts and, apparently, blood, rotting flesh and oozing entrails. At least that's the freaky formula that was used by lifelong pals Aaron Ximm and Kaveh Soofi to create "Pat the Zombie: A Cruel Adult Spoof" -- a bloody weird parody of the beloved children's book "Pat the Bunny," originally penned by author Dorothy Kunhardt in 1940. You remember "Pat the Bunny." It's that sugary sweet, touch-and-feel classic for babies and toddlers about an innocent little girl named Judy, an angelic little boy named Paul and a cute, fluffy bunny. ...

Zombie Valentine's Day: Til Undeath Do Us Part
By Tony Deconinck - AOL NewsWith Valentine's Day upon us, everybody is in full forced-romantic mode. Right now, people are frantically planning dinners, buying flowers and thinking about chocolates or other gifts, but nobody is asking the important question here: What about the zombies? Rob Sacchetto Zombie Portraits creator Rob Sacchetto has released zombie-themed greeting cards for Valentine's Day, Christmas and birthdays. Of course, there's also a "get well soon" card. It's a cold, cruel world for zombies: a violent death, an unwanted reanimation, a constant aching hunger while their ...
Will Arabs and Israelis Unite in Their Fascination With UFOs?
By Lee Speigel - AOL NewsWhile presidents and military leaders have never successfully bridged or solved the political and cultural problems of the Middle East, can UFOs and zombies bring Israelis and Palestinians together? That's the vision of many filmmakers, including Israeli director David Gidali, who, along with cinematographer Itay Gross, just won the top prize in the "Jerusalem 2111" film competition. The contest was sponsored by the Israel-based Association of Planning and Conservation, which creates architectural models of Jerusalem. Filmmakers were invited to submit their futuristic sci-fi visions of ...
Our Year of Zombie Politics
By James Grady - Politics DailyWait: Even in politics, 2010 was the year of zombies? Sure, the hot new wonky tome "Zombie Economics" tells how "dead" economic theories walk among us to shape our paychecks, and sure, zombies lumber out of our TVs almost no matter what channel we click to, and sure, my fellow fantasy prose-slingers are flinging new novels about the undead at the dust of Stephen King and George Romero, but zombies as a metaphor for 2010's politics? Come on! What happened to vampires? Vampires are a great political metaphor! Bloodsuckers. Say no more. But zombies? Who are they in America's 2010 ...
The Strangest, Most Far-Out Photos of 2010
By Lee Speigel - AOL NewsIt's that time of year when thoughts turn to holiday bargains, family get-togethers, peace on Earth and, hopefully, good will to all. It's also time to look back at stunning, unusual and downright far-out images of people, places and oddities captured in 2010. Think of AOL Weird News as your one-stop shop to read about and view the most striking and often bizarre images to be seen anywhere. 2010 will be remembered for many newsworthy events, but some of the items that we at AOL News were especially moved by included things like bullfighter Julio Aparicio's face-goring moment, or those naked ...
What to Buy the Weird People on Your Gift List
By David Moye - AOL NewsDuring the Christmas season, the saying "It's better to give than to receive" gets bandied about. Sometimes, the proper sentiment should be "No good deed goes unpunished." Face it: Some people are just hard to buy for, but sometimes it helps when the gifts are as weird as the recipients. To that end, AOL News has traveled to the far edges of the earth looking for those gifts to get when you don't know what to get. For People Who Still Find Dilbert Funny Is there a person in your life whose idea of fun is complaining about how you are wasting his valuable time talking to him (or ...
