Zombie apocalypse? TV station hacker interrupts programming to warn Montana residents of the undead
The event has gotten so big that for the last few years they've had to bring in a police presence to put up barricades and then a street cleaning crew for, of course, all the leftover guts.

GREAT FALLS, MT - A Montana television station's regular programming was interrupted by news of a zombie apocalypse.
The Montana Television Network says hackers broke into the Emergency Alert System of Great Falls affiliate KRTV and its CW station Monday.
KRTV says on its website the hackers broadcast that "dead bodies are rising from their graves" in several Montana counties.
The network says there is no emergency and its engineers are investigating.
A call to KRTV was referred to a Montana Television Network executive in Bozeman. Jon Saunders didn't immediately return a call for comment.
