The things people to do get Star Wars marathon tickets... wait... am I one of those people???

On a daily basis, I walk what feels like miles from one side of the Senate to the other side, just to discover that the person I wanted to talk to is on lunch break!! It is exhausting, and by the time I get home to my apartment, I want nothing more than to just sit on my bed and watch the Holonet for the next 24 hours! The only problem with that is… I get bored very easily. So you can only imagine my excitement when I heard that something called a “Star Wars marathon tickets” were available!

 

My attention especially perked up when I heard and saw how crazy people were going for these “Star Wars marathon tickets.” When I took my weekly trip to my local diner for a hearty meal and a cup of Jawa Juice, I noticed this huge line in front of this theater building with a very bright neon saying “Star Wars Marathon Tickets Available Here.” The line at the ticket booth stretched around the entire block with what seemed like no end in sight. I even heard that a few fights broke out for these “Star Wars marathon tickets”!

 

That left me to wonder: What on earth are “Star Wars marathon tickets?” Do you run a marathon while saying “Star Wars marathon tickets” a million times? What even is so special about a ticket for a Star Wars marathon?

 

As a senator of tourism who works to tell the people all the best things to do while visiting places, I just had to know what the frenzy for these tickets was all about!

 

So my search began! But like any sensible person, I just had to get my hands on these “Star Wars marathon tickets.” However, it proved to be a much bigger challenge than I first imagined. I quickly jumped in line for the ticket booth and eagerly awaited my turn to get my hands on these tickets… for six. whole. hours. HOURS, I tell you! When it was finally my turn to get my tickets, the alien at the booth told me that they had sold all of the “Star Wars marathon tickets” they had! I was so sad, but it did not stop my spirit! I was determined to get my hands on these “Star Wars marathon tickets” at all costs!

 

And so I set out in search of more tickets. Let me tell you, it took me a while. I even skipped some senate meetings to find these tickets (I hope the Supreme Chancellor didn’t notice my absence…)! After I searched what felt like every level of Coruscant, I finally found another line where people were waiting to buy “Star Wars marathon tickets.”

 

After another two hours, I got a hold of my beloved “Star Wars marathon tickets.” With my tickets firmly in my hand, I checked what the description said. From what I learned, it is a movie showing at this huge theater! If there’s one thing about me, I love a good movie. If there’s another thing about me, when I start a show, I like watching from start to finish, so this marathon is literally my thing. So if the tourism office of the senate seems a bit quiet and isn’t really responding to holos, it’s because I am getting my time and moneys worth with my “Star Wars marathon tickets.”

 

Perhaps if you are interested and want to binge watch the same movie showing, you should grab a ticket before they sell out! I think they’d make a perfect date night idea, best friend gathering, or something fun to do by yourself! Make sure to grab popcorn too!
