Star Wars Day: “The Saga Begins” by Weird Al Yankovic

Star Wars Day: Awesome Star Wars T-Shirts
Whenever I see anyone wearing a Star Wars shirt, I automatically think, “That person is awesome. We should obviously be friends.” In fact, I have a mildly embarrassing number of Star Wars-themed shirts myself. In honor of Star Wars Day, here are just a few of the best Star Wars t-shirts out there:
“It’s a Trap!” Admiral Ackbar as a Ghostbuster shirt from Teefury (no longer available)
‘Fringe’ as ‘Star Wars’
Happy Fringe Friday everyone! Since I had so much fun dressing the cast up as the Wizard of Oz crew last week, I figured I’d try putting a Fringe spin on one of the most beloved sci-fi legacies of all time: Star Wars!
