    Oh I'm totally down for this.
    Wonder if we can get enough people for a group discount.

    Now, that would be awesome. Jan and I are planning to go. If we weren't slackers, we'd already have our tix. lol

    Damn, it looks like 25 minimum for a group.
    How should we do this?
    Looks like tickets break down to this:

    I'm not certain, but I don't think they allow group discounts for something like this. As I understand it, it's already a special price since you're getting the game, the movie and the special Star Wars collectible. Couldn't hurt to ask, though.

    The tickets aren't in front of me right now, but we got some nice nose bleed seats in section 320 if I'm remembering correctly. Actually, we sat in section 305 just a couple of days ago and those turned out to be great seats. It's a pretty great park and it's tough to get a really bad seat there.

    I was expecting Darth Vader in a Giants uniform bobble head. This is 10 times cooler for sure.

    I agree, this is way cooler than any bobble head. I would love to go just to see a screening of Empire (provided it is not the SE of course :? )

    I went to something like this in July for the minor league team here Buffalo Bisons. It was actually fun. They passed out lightsabers, and had a interactive movie they made with the mascots shown between innings. After the game they had the conclusion of the movie (Star Wars) reenacted live on the field with a huge lightsaber battle, ending in fireworks. Best part was when Darth Vader sung "Take Me Out To The Ballpark" during the 7th inning stretch. Also the players wore special Star Wars uniforms, and when they announced them at bat they had a Star Wars character on the big screen who would speak- AKA Chewie would moan.

    I expect this Giants/Star Wars deal to be pretty fun, but nothing quite compares to the fun/silliness one can experience at a minor league park.
