San Francisco, ABY5: His excellency Jabba Desilijic Tiure invites you to join us for the finest CosPlay/In-World experience you’ll find outside of the Inner Core, for a fundraising event to help teach people about droids and robots. He is travelling the galaxy with friends to show off his latest trophies - A rideable TaunTaun, several captive creatures from around the galaxy, and the trophy heads of his hunters' scariest beasts. The event is across four large areas with full bars throughout. Doors open for drinks, snacks, and autographs at 4pm. At 5pm, we will have a panel talk with several ILM veterans who made the movie props. At 6:15, we'll show a historical document for about 2 hours. Then spend the rest of the night enjoying the robots, drinking, gambling, saber-fighting, and live role-playing.
