Home Show brings peace to the galaxy




Darth Vader and a member of the rebel alliance set aside their differences to watch “Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi” at the 2012 Tri-State Home Show, which took place at the Chattanooga Convention Center February 24-26. The show featured over 450 vendors covering every possible aspect of building, renovating, repairing and tending to a home and lawn, including the “man cave” pictured here.  In addition to a high-performance home theater set-up and plush seating, the testosterone-laden lair featured a pool table from Ankar’s Billiards and Barstools, a vintage “Star Trek” pinball machine, and a sit-down arcade cabinet with 60 classic games. And, yes, the lightsaber under the TV screen does light up.  (David Laprad)
