May The Fourth Be With You

Keeping Up With Kids | 04/30/2012 8:00 am

Young Jedi masters are invited to a special night at Fifth Third Field on Friday, May 4th.

The Mudhens will take on the Pawtucket Red Rox, but this won't be your ordinary baseball game. LED Light Sticks will be given away to the first 2,000 fans who enter the park; photo ops with Star Wars characters like Darth Vader, Chewbacca and the Storm Troopers will be be available throughout the evening; and Star Wars-themed food and bev

erages will be on sale as well.

To help keep you in character, a Star Wars Costume Contest and on-field parade is scheduled during the event. Chewy will throw out the ceremonial first pitch. And Star Wars sound effects and music will be played throughout the game.

The main attraction is the post game Star Wars-themed "May the Fourth Be With You" fireworks display. So wear your best Yoda, Obi-Wan, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, or Hans Solo gear, and May the Fourth be with you this spring.
