Highway sign displays zombie warning

Drivers in Colorado were perplexed on Monday morning by a road sign warning them about zombies.
It turned out that someone had tampered with the electronic sign by opening the back and replacing the existing message with one about a zombie invasion. The workmen who had left the control box for the sign unlocked were reprimanded following the incident.
A highway sign warning of zombies has prompted CDOT to make sure all the electronic signs it uses are locked to prevent hacking. The issue arose early Monday morning when a Colorado Department of Highways electronic road-warning sign in Boulder flashed a warning of "ZOMBIES AHEAD. "

LOL@ NIBS!!! Seriously, I live in broomfield. That's generally as close to Boulder as I'll venture. And if I have to goto Boulder, I try and make it as fast as possible. I made the mistake of leaving Broomfield's Highschool and going to a Boulder one. (Many Many Moons ago lol) but, was such a major shock to me! Me and a few other people from broomfield and surrounding cities of Boulder would get out to one of our vehicles as much as possible of which we designated a "Boulder Free Zone." lol That's really how bad it was....

Or it will be a trap set by the zombies. Everyone will take the exit ramp instead and that's where the zombies will be. That's quite a cunning plan!
