It makes a whole lot more sense than farming in Detroit.

Why build when they can just repurpose Detroit?

Terrible idea. Zombies have no concept of "line queues" and would simply storm the attractions. They also aren't sophisticated enough to actually operate attractions, so you'd have to hire humans....who would quickly be eaten.

They're probably just looking for a quick government loan or something.

And FURTHERMORE could any reasonable person actually think that a zombie would pull out a wallet and actually PAY for a ticket to something?

This thing is going to lose money big time. I wonder if the entire concept wasn’t drawn up by zombies.

Is the park to provide amusement for zombies; a place for them to go and relax?
Or to let normal humans visit a zombie themed park?

Sounds great to me, but then I thought Autoworld would be a hit.
