Star Wars Day - The Big Bang Theory

On May the 4th,2017, London Heathrow Airport decided to celebrate the Star Wars Day in a way that has thrilled everyone.

There was also a flight directed to the Death Star, but the board recommended to be at the gate earlier, because it could be a trap.

The photos of the scoreboard have been shared over all social networks and newspapers. And will remain one of the most successful jokes ever, not only related to Star Wars.
