starwars new york stock exchange

This will be a day long remembered…

Iconic characters from the Star Wars saga, along with LucasFilm executives, made an appearance yesterday morning at the New York Stock Exchange.

The Dark Lord of the Sith himself, Darth Vader, rang the opening bell at the NYSE while surrounded by a group of clone troopers.

The ever-lovable droid R2-D2 was also present at the festivities.

Watch the video here below of Darth Vader ringing the bell to open the stock exchange.

  3. The fact they used troopers from The Clone Wars era is viral marketing enough for the tv show, which by the way this season has been most excellent thus far.
