May the Fourth be with you

There’s definitely something there for the dozens of us that are fans of both franchises. Fans will see Star Wars characters at Fenway Park and some will receive a limited edition bobblehead of Jedi Mookie Betts. The company is set to release a new Princess Leia action figure based on her appearance in The Empire Strikes Back.

May the Fourth came about organically among fans and was subsequently embraced by Disney.

It seems likely that more Star Wars promotions will be happening today, but as far as things inside of our wheelhouse are concerned, these seem like the big ones right now.

One of the earliest known references to the day followed the May 4, 1979, election of Margaret Thatcher as Britain’s prime minister, according to a post on the official Star Wars website.

At Hallmark, you can get 25 percent off some “Star Wars” gifts after spending at least $15 on May 4 and 5.

While Netflix may not be able to provide fans with a place to view any of the franchise’s live action classics, Netflix is the home for the franchise’s breakout animated series Star Wars: The Clone Wars.

Hamill used the video to also announce the chance to win a special pre-screening of The Last Jedi alongside lunch with him in Los Angeles (and not the Mos Eisley Cantina).

“Star Wars'” future, by contrast, is being meticulously planned.

Several teachers at Osceola have a firm love for Star wars a few of them are Mr. Sadler, Mr. Yarbrough, Mr. Martens and Mr. Ziesenheim. May the force be with you!

Volunteer to organize a May the Fourth event at your local public library. After all, the Star Wars universe is a dense web of interlocking and interconnecting characters and stories; why not highlight them all?

The day has its share of critics too.
