Once checked in, everyone was treated to Wookie Pies (Red Velvet Whoopie Pies, kind of giant cake Oreos), there was a limited Darth Vader edition of the Star Wars Flight Simulator Arcade game, with full force feedback, air jets and was the closest anyone could come to actually being Lando Calrissian on the Assault of Death Star II, or on the Forest Moon of Endor on a speeder bike. I was chatting, in line to get into the event, with Travis Richey (Inspector Space-Time from Community), and a retired US Army Infantryman who was working on a combat instruction series, there were a few Schmoes Want to Know there and a more than a few Star Wars Superfans as well like Cosplayer Booba Fett.

About 300 YouTubers of varying levels of notoriety were in attendance. As if everywhere you looked, there was Star Wars something or other, last week Red Carpet Report Host, Cathy Kelley and myself got to attend YouTubeSpaceLA’s Storytellers Star Wars “The Force Awakens” Panel with JJ Abrams, Kathleen Kennedy, Daisy Ridley, Gwendoline Christie and John Boyega.
