Get ready to have your universe rocked with a video that is from a galaxy far, far away.
The Force is strong with Tempe Mayor Hugh Hallman, as he and a merry band of about 50 Ghostbusters, Trekkies, storm troopers and other costumed characters made their way along Mill Avenue to promote Geeks’ Night Out, the Science of Fun.
