"Roses...and Stormtroopers"
Roses...and Stormtroopers

Los Angeles (E! Online) - Some things you don't plan. Like, training a company of stormtroopers for the Rose Parade. You don't plan that. And then one day the phone rings, and an emissary for George Lucus is on the other end. With a New Year's mission. For you.
You are Anthony Toledo.
"I was not expecting this at all," the 41-year-old Californian said. "It did blow my mind."
Being asked to train 200 civilians to march in Imperial warrior gear in the 118th annual Rose Parade before a million spectators, tens of millions of TV viewers and a grand marshal named Lucas will do that to you.
Come Jan. 1, you will be part of a 30th-anniversary Star Wars blowout in the streets of Pasadena, California. There'll be an Ewoks float. There'll be a planet Naboo float. There'll be a 175-piece college marching band—its players outfit as Imperial officers—blaring "The Imperial March." There'll be Lucas. And there'll be you. And 200 stormtroopers. (snip)
