    A fan-centered event, Celebration III's program includes droid races and robotic workshops, as well as an appearance by legendary director George Lucas himself.

    Organized by Gen Con, a game event company, the convention follows similar gatherings in 1999 and 2002 in the run-up to new installments in the Star Wars canon.

    As for the sponsors, this super-sized Stars Wars fan club is full of well-heeled tech guys to sell to. Key spots in the exhibit hall went to toy kings like Hasbro, but souvenir manufacturers were hardly the only group reveling in the fandom.

    "We understand in 2002 that 2.6 million workers called in sick for IT staffs on the day that Episode 2 came out," said Nate Bauer, an agent for the Best Buy-owned Geek Squad, a 24-hour technical support firm. "This is the perfect fit for us."

    GeekSquad sent a team of 13 into the exhibit hall to provide help with laptop computers -- and to advertise a special promotional event in May. As the black-tied employees aided the brown-robed guests, they talked up an upcoming eBay auction in which bidders can vie for a Geek Squad agent to fill in at work on May 19, the release date for Sith.

    Cingular Wireless garbed its associates in Jedi tunics and handed out press kits that rang out the Stars Wars theme when opened. Special phone packages with exclusive Star Wars wallpaper and sound effects were on sale

    Have a feeling he is serious.

    (Said in good humor) For some people a belief of The Force allows them to dream they actually live in their own apt and have a sexy girlfriend when in reality they live in their parent's basement and their 'girlfriend' is some person whose character they interact with within a video game. (think Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons)... and may The Schwartz be with you. :)

    It's one thing to like the SW movies, (I personally hate sci fi, but that's just me) but to don all that garb and pretend that you're a frickin storm trooper or C3PO, come on man. They're on the same plane as the Civil War reinactors. Remember all those wierdos that camped out for a week to be the 1st ones to see that SW movie that came out a few years ago??

    Those chicks look like a really huge "I'D HIT IT" headache.

    Sure, they're a little kinky, but that kinkiness also translates into "I'll drive by your house every hour until you answer your phone" down the line when you get tired of dealing with them.

    It makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand straight up just thinking it about it!

    Attractive women that are into Star wars. Thats unpossible as Ralf would say. Are you sure they are 100% natural born women and not some freak of nature.

    I'm pretty sure that's not a woman.. it might be a flight attendant on an airline called "Ted" however.
