Prom season is upon us (or so we’ve been told as we were home schooled until the age of 25) and high schoolers all across the galaxy are busy planning their evening of debauchery. You can’t just go to Prom, you’ve gotta go BIG! The staff at FSW gets it — we’ve been to Nerd Prom in San Diego more times than we care to admit. But our shame is your gain! We’ve come up with 10 Star Wars-inspired strategies to make you King and/or Queen of the Prom. Because if it works at Nerd Prom, it’s gotta work at Prom Prom right?! Behold our collective wisdom after the jump.
Bring your brother or sister as your date
Declare yourself Emperor of Prom and enact Order 67, which states that all jocks and sports-sensitives be hunted down and issued a permanent time-out
Arrive in a stretch Millennium Falcon and claim the high ground on the dance floor in case any fools step up to the streets
Rent a hoodie tux from Ren’s Warehouse
Customize the backdrop to your pre-prom photos by adding a Darth Vader shadow behind
Bribe the force ghost chaperones to look the other way as you roofie the punch
Cap the evening off by trading your V Card for a super rare chase card in the Star Wars Card Trader app
Wear a less conservative slave Leia prom dress, and be carried into the venue on a velvet sofa by five cosplaying Mathletes.
