We've had a pretty impressive turn out of Midwest Garrison, Mando Merc members, and enthusiastic friends for the 3D opening of Episode I: The Phantom Menace at the Rave Motion Pictures in Peoria, IL. Troopers all met around 6pm and trooped through the evening till around 10-11pm. The troopers did not waste any opportunity to entertain the crowds and help promote the Star Wars pins being sold for the Theater's charity.
In between the first two showings we experienced a long break and an absence of folks to meet and greet so we all took a walk over to the Steak 'N' Shake and Starbucks down the road for dinner... in costume. We walked into Steak 'N' Shake to an applause from both the staff and customers and in Starbucks we were welcomed by a stunned group and an excited and speechless barista.
Attendants:
James Nolan - 7696 (Shadowtrooper)
Mark Berry - 4265 (Boba Fett)
