To help promote its Star Wars themed promo night on Friday, the Nuggets took to Twitter to raise awareness for the game.
The fun started on Wednesday, when @nuggets began tweeting in the voice of Yoda, which it carried all the way through its postgame coverage of Friday night’s 111-108 overtime win versus the Timberwolves.
As an ode to Star Wars, and to signify its eleventh home game of the season on Friday night, the Nuggets used #EpisodeXI in each of its tweets. Leading up to an hour before the game, the Nuggets’ Twitter posted nine graphics in which it either created faux Star Wars characters out of Nuggets players or integrated Star Wars backgrounds into Pepsi Center scenes.
