Why arnt there any star wars themed teams yet?

I was listening to some Star Wars theme music with a FIRST alumni friend, and we both realized that we have never seen a Star Wars themed team. Like a jedi or sith or republic themed one. The apparel potential, the witty titles and the team name. It would be great to see more in the future.

Re: Why arnt there any star wars themed teams yet?

IIRC, we had a class in the 2013 robot called "Binary Load Lifter" and we listed C3PO as one of the authors. I also pitched the name BiLL (also for Binary Load Lifter) for our 2015 robot.

Re: Why arnt there any star wars themed teams yet?

Honestly, I would find it great if a match strategy person would come up to me in a jedi robes and a lightsaber, and would say "May the FIRST be with you." After making the strategy.
