While attending the ReplayFX Arcade & Video Game Festival in Pittsburgh I saw what I can only assume was a father and son, enjoying the festival while dressed as stormtroopers from Star Wars.

Members of the 501st Legion were part of this massive arcade and gaming festival in Pittsburgh. The 501st is a non-profit organization who brings the world of Star Wars to life by dressing in costume. They're 11,000 strong world wide and recently raised over $150,000 for the Make-A-Wish endowment in just 10 months. 

The father and son troopers kept popping up in places throughout the festival and everyone attending wanted to get photos of them.

Lucky for them, their boss was too busy playing the new Star Wars pinball to question why they weren't at their post.
