Star Wars fans didn’t need their own lightsaber to try and create a world record this weekend. They just needed to show up at Berkley Riverfront Park for the Battle 4 KC and get one for attending. Friends of the River KC organized the event to create a world record for the biggest lightsaber battle while raising money and awareness for Children Mercy’s Cystic Fibrosis Clinic.
Unfortunately, they did not get enough participants to beat the world record, but 2,840 people participated and $35,106.96 was raised.
