It's May 4 which means there's another Star Wars Day is upon us.  Here's a look at some ways you can mark the day no matter what galaxy you're in. 

Holy Sith, you guys, Star Wars Day is upon us again.

"May the 4th" is a day for all lovers of Jedi, the Resistance, the Skywalkers, the Hutts, Boba Fett, Gamorrean guards, Maz Kanata, General Grievous, Rancor Keeper and Snap Wexley to unite and celebrate all there is in the galaxy far, far away. (Why May 4, you ask? Why, it's right there in the date, a play on "May the Force be with you.")

Locally, the Oklahoma City Zoo is hosting a day full of Star Wars themed enrichment activities for the animals, and kids who visit. More information on specific activities can be found here.
