Welcome To The Dark Side

Hey! It was Star Wars night last Saturday at Security Service Field at Mile High and the nerds were Empire was out in force and all I have to say is, "Ah.. Star Wars! Nothing but Star Wars! Gimme those Star Wars.. don't let them end! Ah.. Star Wars! If they should bar wars.. please let these Star Wars stay-ay! And, hey! How about that nutty Star Wars bar? Can you forget all those creatures in there? And, hey! Darth Vader in that black and evil mask - did he scare you as much as he scared me-e-e-e?...Star Wars-s-s-s!"

Look! It's all our favorite Star Wars bad guys!
Darth Vader and his stormtroopers!
And some Sandpeople!
And that Fazoli's apple/strawberry/tomato thingy!

An Ewok marches a Stormtrooper off with a bat
as a gun as George Lucas looks on approvingly.

A Sandperson takes some hacks with his stabby stick.
Also appearing, a little league team, another Sandperson,
the chick from Legend of Zelda and that Fazoli's red thing again.

Sox didn't have a big part in this installment, but he did
get to wave an Empire flag with 'Star Wars' written on it
(Just like the real Empire flag I'd imagine).

The one on the left must be compensating for something.

All in all a good time was had and I think the bad guys won
(I wasn't really paying attention).

See you August 24th for Star Trek Night! Double the nerds! Double the fun!

Poop On Your Star Wars Night!

The Sky Sox are having their 3rd annual/2nd annual Star Wars night on Saturday, June 23rd. It will be a night of nerds in Star Wars outfits, freaks not in Star Wars outfits, confused and bewildered baseball fans wishing they had checked the promo schedule and a giant evil rat.

Anytime something like this comes up all I can think of is Triumph the Insult Comic Dog hanging out with the Episode I crowds in New York:

Triumph, the Insult Comic Dog - Star Wars - watch more funny videos

Hello evil rat. Where are your bells?

You look sad vandalized Stormtrooper. What's wrong?

A skinny Boba Fett in sneakers, a Stormtroop hanging out,
a pink Stormtrooper lookin' sassy
and a skinny Stormtroop posing for a snapshot with a fan.

Fat Vader is too fat to pitch.
His minion tosses the ball while Darth wanders off for a snack.

The event is a good time for families, Star Wars fans and nerds. Game time is 6:05pm. Get there early to see all the freaks.
