    I guess nobody made it up this weekend. Oh well.

    We had a great time, saw/ bought lots of toys and even met Boba, Chewie, and Nien Numb. Alot of fans got to race the stars in Pod Racer and all had a great time.

    I have some video I am putting together for the next event. I'll get a link posted ASAP.

    MTFBWY!
