Physicist Davide Cassi at the Università di Parma in Italy looked at how long an entity hiding in a complex structure could survive if being pursued by predatory random walkers.

Sure, it works for zombies. Minotaurs? Not so much...

Ah...but Minotaurs aren't "predatory random walkers."

Neither are zombies once they have the smell of fresh brains. Mmmm, juicy chess club brains.

Well, that's only if the zombies are "Return of the Living Dead" sort, which are only a fraction of the total zombie population.

Also, do note that those who are in the chess club are statistically more likely to be virgins than many of their compatriots, and are thus less likely to be eaten.

True, not all zombies have a sophisticated palate, but whether they dine on gray matter or chew the fat, zombies home in on prey when it's detected.

Morality trumping mortality went out with the 20th century. Most current horror movies only grant hero shields. Leaving juicy chess club brains, or their corpulent frames, the perfect zombie snack.

No, no, no! There is no virginity/zombie appetite link known to science.

Virgins are less likely to be slain by nigh-unkillable slashers- your Voorhees/Meyers types.
