A December afternoon in Pittsburgh suggests a practical wardrobe. Your imagination, unfortunately, has already packed a cape and begun composing an entrance. This is what happens when the Penguins put Star Wars Night on the calendar. An ordinary plan to enjoy hockey acquires a small amount of galactic ambition, and suddenly you are considering
You encounter the words Rock Lobsters and suspect that someone has already done the difficult part of naming a cantina band. Then Athens supplies the context: hockey, Star Wars Night, and an evening at Akins Ford Arena. The imaginary band can wait. You have a real December event to consider, and its name has
You consider an expedition to Hoth, then remember that your calendar has a rather more convenient suggestion: Erie in December. No need to calculate a hyperspace route or investigate the storage requirements of a tauntaun. The Erie Otters have Star Wars Night scheduled, which is enough to make an ordinary afternoon feel like a
You write Independence, Missouri, into your plans and immediately feel that a Rebel sympathizer would approve of the address. It is a small pleasure, but a useful one. The Kansas City Mavericks add hockey and Star Wars Night to the arrangement, giving the evening enough character without requiring a secret mission, a concealed message,

There are two kinds of rush in the galaxy: the sort that ends with a frantic departure from a space station, and the sort that puts hockey on the calendar in Rapid City. A sensible traveler might choose the latter. Pack away the emergency hyperspace calculations, leave the elaborate escape plan unfinished, and consider
A protocol droid planning an evening of hockey might arrive with a comprehensive guide to rink etiquette and a very firm opinion about unnecessary roughness. In Sault Ste. Marie, that imaginary adviser would have a date to circle. The Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds are hosting Star Wars Night 2027 at GFL Memorial Gardens on Friday,
You packed the Jedi robe with the confidence of someone who had not yet considered January in Illinois. A fine garment for contemplating the Force; a more debatable choice as an entire winter wardrobe. Fortunately, Bloomington offers a practical reason to organize the evening before your imaginary expedition gets out of hand. The Bison
You read GIANT CENTER and appreciate the lack of hesitation. No modest little name here; this is a destination that has made its intentions clear. In Hershey, the Bears have added Star Wars Night to the calendar, and you begin imagining what a galactic travel guide might make of the combination. Bears, hockey, January.
