Washington, D.C.-based Star Wars fans, there's been an awakening. Have you felt it?
As the nation's capital prepares for the massive snowstorm headed its way this week, the Washington D.C. Snowball Fight Association has scheduled a giant Star Wars-themed snowball fight for Saturday at Dupont Circle Fountain. The event's nerdy title: "Snow Wars: The Snowball Strikes Back."
On the event's page, organizers encourage participants to bring their best Star Wars costumes, though "Trekkies and other space-themed combatants" are welcome as well.
The fight is set for 12:00 P.M., but organizer Ami Greener tells Fox 5 D.C. that the event's date and time are subject to change depending on weather.
Last year, the Washington D.C. Snowball Fight Association organized a massive gathering in Meridian Hill Park after officials in the region advised workers to stay home. It's clear these guys don't mess around.
