What if Empire Strikes Back started with a puck drop?

Yeah, I'd still watch it.



The Jersey pictured above is from the 3rd annual "Star Wars" night of the IHL Port Huron Ice Hawks. What makes me even more jealous than the fact that the fans of that great stadium get to buy these jerseys? The part that says this is an ANNUAL event.



Yes, January 26th, 2010  is the 3rd time around they have had a Star Wars night. Honestly, who wouldn't wear a Boba Fett jersey? Last year's jersey featured Darth Maul and their Ice Hawk mascot had a lightsaber in its talon's instead of a hockey stick.



And what is a Star Wars night without the men and women of the 501st? Not a Star Wars night, that's what! Yes, it is presided over by the 501's very own Jon Leopold.  I've gone to hockey games where the kids areas have  games like hardest slap shot competitions, street hockey rinks and etc. taking place, but how about rolling to a hockey game that has competitions like a Blaster Range and, get this, a Wookiee roar competition!?!



Yeah Im jealous, here's a link to last year's Star War's night.
