Comments:
• Location of event/parking details: O.co Arena, 7000 Coliseum Way, Oakland, CA. All guests are encouraged to take BART (Coliseum stop) for convenience; parking is available for $20 at the gate. If you are selected as a Star Wars participant, parking will be made available to you.
• Event date, start & end times: Sunday, April 1st. All guests (20 MAX from all invited clubs) should plan on arriving between 2:30 and 3:00 to meet Warriors’ representatives. The meeting will be between the E Lot Suites and G Lot VIP & Suites parking area.
• Details: All participants will be met and escorted, based on their participation, throughout the facility. If fan group members elect to participate in game activities, there will be opportunities to interact with fans including pregame, In Game, and postgame.
Teams cannot direct fan group members to do any activities or be anywhere specific at any specific time – they may provide the groups with a list of activities to self-organize and participate in, but it is at fan group members’ own discretion. We strongly prefer that characters not throw out first pitches, participate in puck drops, sing the National Anthem, or things of that nature – if they want, fan group members may escort a child or fan to the mound, etc., but must not be directed to do so. Characters should not hold, wear, sit in or stand on any branded item or logo, especially with a team emblem. The fan groups are welcome to be photographed with others wearing the team logo/brands or in front of signage featuring the team logo/brand , however. We strongly suggest that teams provide a handler/security for costumed fans during activities to ensure the safety and security of said costumed fans, to protect them from overzealous game attendees.
Referred by: The Golden State Warriors offer an open invite to costumed fan groups to attend their event this April 1st. This is approved by Lucasfilm.
The Warriors will only have space for 20 characters from all groups. As this is a spec ops event we will advise the Warriors on character mix, but end of the day they will be the ones making the picks on what characters they want to appear.
Basically this is just to let you all know we may have more sign ups than space, so there is a chance not everyone will be picked.
As this is a high profile event please review the garrison standards and practices forum post:
ER has asked that we cap the list and he is going to try to see if he can fit everyone that has signed up in. No guarantees, but they are working on it.
At this point everyone that signed up before the cap is APPROVED to troop this event. Please let me know if you will be driving solo or carpooling (and with whom) ASAP. I kneed to get the parking list to the Warriors by Thursday

Hey Cris,
The ER asked us to cap the list last week but if someone has to drop out we can try to sneak you in
Hi Cris with Edwin and Patti dropping off I am adding you to the list
Take my husband off and Cris can go. I will switch over to handler. Does that work?
