The way Star Wars has permeated our lives goes beyond a movie saga, TV series, and books. The franchise is a huge deal worldwide, and now that Disney has acquired its rights, we have more galactic content than ever. So we’re at that point when we find Star Wars fans and references everywhere.
Las Vegas Raiders is a mythical team known for being the “tough ones,” the ones that one mind getting their hands dirty (not that they play violently, they’re just badass). Being led by the late John Madden, the team became a historical icon alongside its coach. The Raiders NFL team has resided in Las Vegas for a couple of years now. And now that their Allegiant Stadium wears the nickname Death Star proudly, it has become evident that some kind of fandom is lying underneath.
Now that draft season is over, and the opening games are getting closer and closer, the Raiders team has publicly joined the dark side with a very homage announcing their warm-up for the upcoming season.

Even though some hardcore fans came out explaining to the team that they should use red lightsabers, many football and Star Wars fans couldn’t help but hype about this. And I don’t blame them at all! This is an extra point added to all the badassery this team carries yearly. Don’t your think so?
