Such an awesome time was had I'm sure! The 501st Garrison Titan here in WA has a similar "
Star Wars Night" with the Seattle Mariners too. I was talking with the GWL who is helping me with my daughters costume, and she said it was one and done for her. Her and her husband are super/mega Star Wars fans so the 501st seems like a great fit for both of them. They are both in their mid-50's and she went a Boushh that night. Well, apparently there was an incident where she found herself around many drunk folks and one guy thought it'd be funny to jump on her back and go for a ride. Obviously.....not cool. That incident caused her back to blow out and knees too. She had to sit on the ground for about 45 mins before she was able to get helped up - too much pain.
I know not all troops are like that - but something to be wary of. Again, certainly looks like you had a great time! Also that Stormtrooper is super tall!
Looks like a great time! Wow 5 hours with the jetpack sounds like a workout lol

I can imagine that 5 hours of that is torture. Even the 3-Hour Unofficial Troop I did on May the 4th was taxing, only thing you can do is maintain discipline and suck it up. Hahaha! I'm 46 now, but I can recall doing a "
Ruck March" in the US Army, 12 miles, 50lb backpack and you need to have it completed in 3-hours! No way I can do that now, I'm confident I wouldn't even be able to pass an Army PT Test today - Hahaha! I did start P90X this week though!
