Jason Fry's Fantasy Come True

Mets attempt �Force� play By JEREMY OLSHAN Last Updated: 8:28 AM, September 10, 2011 Posted: 12:44 AM, September 10, 2011 The Force hasn�t exactly been with the Mets of late, but George Lucas is hoping to change that. Next Tuesday will be Star Wars Night at Citi Field. Fans will each receive a Met T-shirt featuring Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia. And with every ticket sold, the team will donate $5 to Stand Up To Cancer, a group devoted to funding medical breakthroughs. With Darth Vader joining Stormtroopers in promoting the Blu-Ray release of �The Star Wars Saga� the following day, Met fans are encouraged to dress up as Jedi, Ewoks and Sith Lords. There will also be �Star Wars� trivia played during the baseball game, with movie-related prizes awarded.

close. it was Star Wars Stand up to Cancer night. those were combined. We stood mid-4th.

Filipino Heritage was forgotten except for some sort of pregame dance thing that I missed online with Shake Shack, but I've got pictures of the other stuff.
