Chewbacca mask lady lives her best life with IRL Chewbacca at Facebook HQ
Candace Payne's unstoppable joy has made it to Facebook HQ.
The Texas mom and Star Wars enthusiast, who delighted the Internet with her ecstatic reaction to a Chewbacca mask, visited Facebook headquarters on Tuesday after a special invitation from Mark Zuckerberg.
"We invited Candace Payne, whose Chewbacca mask video got 141 million views and is now the most-watched Facebook Live video ever, to come by Facebook HQ today," Zuckerberg wrote in a post. "And we had a fun surprise for her!"

That surprise was an IRL Chewbacca — a fitting companion for Payne's day in Silicon Valley. And from the looks of it, the two had the best day ever.
Payne also recorded another Facebook Live video with the Facebook Live developers, because of course.
"This is serendipity at its finest," she said.
We think this commenter summed it up pretty well.
