Ok.. so I read this article.

Janesville police got a surprise when they responded to a report of an armed robbery at the Ramada Inn, 3431 Milton Ave.

The alleged suspect was dressed as a Stormtrooper, a soldier for the Galactic Empire in the science fiction movie series “Star Wars.”

And I just have to ask… did whoever call this in as an armed robbery live in a cave? I mean… who would seriously think that a Stormtrooper would be committing armed robbery? They serve as the Empire’s poilce force.. and the Empire has pretty good benefits.. so.. its not like he needs the money for dental surgery or something…

Seriously though, In addition to the signs that were most likely plastered around the hotel..I’ve been to sci-fi convetiions before.. and there is no way this guy was the only person there in costume.. you’d have to be a complete moron to think that there was a robbery in place..

(Or.. you work for the hotel or convention, and wanted some extra free publicity)
