Pocatello in The House of Daniel[]

On July 4, 1934, the House of Daniel traveled to Pocatello to play the Bannocks. Still smarting over their loss to the Peaches, the House of Daniel clobbered the Bannocks, 13-4. One Bannock asked House player Jack Spivey about the riots in Denver; Pocatello had its zombies, and he was worried that whatever happened there might happen in Pocatello. Spivey still didn't know, although he shared the theory that the vampires had inspired the zombies to riot. For his part, Spivey thought the best way to prevent zombie riots was to outlaw zombies.[1]

The team stayed for the free dinner (hot dogs and fries) and fireworks show. The most remarkable part of the fireworks show was when a vampire was hit by an rocket and destroyed by the fires.[2]
