This is what teens encountered at my library: link

Yes, that's me in the helmet. And no, I couldn't see a thing in it.
Yes, I am holding an X-Wing game maneuver dial. I demoed X-Wing to the kids, offering them 10 points in our incentive program if they could shoot me down (Darth Vader in an Advanced TIE, Opportunist upgrade, Cluster Missiles, vs. Luke Skywalker, X-wing, Proton Torps, R2-D2, Marksmanship).
None did, because I am the master.

"Luke, I am your librarian."

My faithful droid companion is our head Teen Librarian.
We had the Star Wars soundtrack music playing in the background, too!

Good show! Did you get a lot of attention, and did they shoot you down at all?

Well done sir! I guess the real question is did you turn any to the Dark Side? (Did you recruit any new gamers?)

Excellent. :)

[Darth Vader booming Voice]

"IT IS USELESS TO RESIST THE DARK SIDE!!!"

[panicky response]

"But, but, this is a library!"

[Darth Vader… whispering]

"it is useless to resist the dark side."

I long for the days when I got to hang out at the library as a kid.

None shot me down, but they did get to enjoy me crashing into an asteroid. Apparently, I'm no good at navigation odds.

And, yes, they have requested a return of the game.
