It was a very eventful evening once again at the US Steel Yard!

Star Wars came to life at the RailCats game on Tuesday, July 7th and the Me Team was there to see it! Peter Mayhew, aka Chewbacca, was there signing autographs for the fans.

Darth Vader, Chewbacca, Emperor Palpatine, Lord Darth Revan, Boba Fett, a Gammorean Guard as well as a few Storm Troopers and a Tie Fighter Pilot were also there entertaining the crowd, and posing for pictures with the kids and spectators at the game which made it very cool.
