Humans vs. Zombies (HvZ) is a game of moderated tag commonly played on college campuses. Human players must remain vigilant and defend themselves with socks and Nerf guns to avoid being tagged by the growing zombie horde. Read more, or
watch the documentary.
Since beginning at Goucher College in 2005, Humans vs. Zombies has developed an international fan base and received prominent press coverage from the Washington Post, NPR, the Associated Press, FOX "News", USA Today, the Globe and Mail, the Chronicle of Higher Education and SlashDot.
Someone made us a Wikipedia page. Stephen Colbert has declared us the "number one threat to America."

Truman State’s Fall 2008 game of Humans Versus Zombies is the stuff of legends. While many moderators find it difficult to run even the most barebones game, Truman’s Cody Sumter and his band of moderators created what would go down as the most complicated, well-designed, and exhausting implementation of plot and missions Humans Versus Zombies has ever seen.

In the fall of 2008, Goucher College’s Human Resistance won its third game of Humans Vs. Zombies, its second in a row, and just as with the previous victories the mood was far from celebratory. Human victories inevitably create a divide within the player community that Zombie victories do not. Where a Zombie victory unites all of the players under the brain-craving banner of the Horde, Human victories divide the player base into survivors (winners) and infected (losers). This schism manifests itself in name-calling, accusations of cowardice, and disunity. The Zombies are unhappy that they have been kept out of the winner’s circle and relegated to a mass of losers. However, the Humans cannot really enjoy their victory. In a game where respect is the ultimate currency, those who chose to outlive the Horde end the game with empty wallets (or worse, in debt).
