Ottawa REDBLACKS are in the Star Wars mood

Today is May 4th and for us Star Wars fans, it’s one of our favourite days of the year.

We’re just a few weeks away from the newest installment to the Star Wars franchise – Solo: A Star Wars Story – so our incredible design department put together a CFL-style poster for the new movie.

It features Hamilton Tiger-Cat Simoni Lawrence as Lando Calrissian, Ottawa REDBLACKS Greg Ellingson and Jon Gott as Han Solo and Chewbacca, respectively and our very own Brodie Lawson makes an appearance as Kira.

Please see the master piece below:

During the TSN shoot at Mark’s CFL Week in Winnipeg, there were lights on TSN’s set that looked like, well, lightsabers, and the Ottawa REDBLACKS took full advantage of it.

Ellingson, Brad Sinopoli and Diontae Spencer all posed with the faux lightsabers and it. was. incredible. *Slow clap*

May the Fourth Be With You, CFL fans!!
