StormTroopers On Parade

Just a reminder to the Star Wars fans who post here (I know, it's all of us!) George Lucas is the Grand Marshall of the Tournament of Roses Parade on television tomorrow, and the parade is completely Star Wars themed. There will also be over 200 hundred Stormtroopers from the 501st Legion marching as well as stars of the films riding on floats, Star Wars themed floats, and the man himself... Who most likely will be wearing flannel. But Hey, when you control the hearts and minds of millions of slaves around world, you can look anyway you want to. Just ask Bill Gates.

Watching 200+ Stormtroopers marching down Pasadena was quite cool. I think you and Wild Willie should buy some outfits and join the 501st. I was only disappointed that the Grambling State University Band (standing in for the Imperial Marching Band) wasn't featured more (at least what I saw from the encore presentation on the Travel Channel).

I agree. Plus, they could probably ebay those Imperial Officers uniforms they were all wearing and all pay for thier college education.
