That's me playing Bobo Barnett (in Bobo's actual costume) at the Javits Center in NYC last week, helping to promote Bonnie Barnett Murphy's new book "Bobo's Daughter" at the Book Expo.
I was the only costumed character making an appearance when all of the sudden in walked Darth Vader and a battalion of stormtroopers. I fell into line behind them and marched with them across the trade show floor. When the powers that be finally noticed me I tried to explain to the rep from Lucasfilm that I was "Bobo Fett" and I was supposed to be there. They weren't buying it ; )
