Millenium Falcon T-Shirt

Liz and I were riding the Blue Line out a little further, last week, as we were meeting Seth out by Irving Park. We were to look around at a few properties near the Addison stop.

As we were heading up, I spotted this guy across the way wearing my red Millenium Falcon t-shirt. It’s kind of odd seeing someone else with the same clothes that you have, and the fact that this shirt is bright red with a huge Star Wars blueprint on it… well, it kind of sticks out.

As we approached the stop, the guy stood next to us by the door. On leaving, I found myself compelled to ask him about the shirt, and to see if he found it as comfortable as I did.

He kind of shrugged and said the shirt was “alright,” but was nice enough to humor me and allowed me to snap a photo.

It’s been a long while since I’ve stopped some random stranger to photograph their t-shirt. I used to do that kind of thing all the time, years ago… and this moment was a kind of fun throwback to the early days of this blog.

In hindsight, I should have asked this guy if he was aware of the incredibly awesome Full Scale Millenium Falcon Project.
