Let’s face it. For Star Wars fans there is no bigger day (other than the Return of the 5th) than that of May the 4th. Throughout the world it’s a day where people quote yoda with abandon, watch the interstellar civil war set in a galaxy far, far away and have mock lightsaber fights with…well mock lightsabers. It’s a time to get together with friends and quote entire reels of movies as well as blurt out trivia concerning every background character to grace the screen.
What happens when you run out of movies though? What if you’ve binge watched the movies ad nauseam and you want to try something new? Well, you’re in luck. If you’re in New York City or Boston, you can attend “The Big Star Wars Quiz Thing”! Touted as a live trivia game show, The Big Quiz Thing uses a mix of various puzzles, lightning rounds, buzzer finales and even awards for the most humorous wrong answers. If testing your mettle against fellow fans may be motivation enough, how about some prizes? The point is, anyone can celebrate May the 4th by watching some flicks and spouting a few factoids but this is a gameshow of epic proportions that needs you!
