Lumen Field fails zombie survival test

Seattle, WALocal News

Flashpicks ranked Lumen Field in Seattle as the least viable NFL stadium for surviving a zombie apocalypse based on a recent analysis. The evaluation of 30 stadiums included ten survival factors such as proximity to downtown, entry points, and agricultural potential. Lumen Field's location near downtown poses a significant risk in a crisis, making it easier for zombies to reach fleeing fans. Its open-air design and the use of FieldTurf rather than natural grass further diminish its fortress-like qualities. Conversely, State Farm Stadium in Arizona claimed the top spot for survival capabilities.

This ranking aligns with the upcoming season of "The Last of Us," which is set in Seattle and has sparked local interest in survival strategies. While the likelihood of a real zombie apocalypse remains low, the analysis provides a humorous perspective on stadium safety. Football fans may find themselves contemplating survival tactics as they cheer for their teams this season.
