Seven teenagers who have life threatening illnesses were granted their wish to greet the stars of the latest "Star Wars" movie named "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" in Los Angeles on Saturday. The Make A Wish foundation was not able to guarantee the lucky teenagers who won the chance to see their favorite characters from the Star Wars movies. What makes this story interesting is that the Make A Wish Foundation is working with Disney Studios who own the rights of the Star Wars franchise to have fans of the science fiction series have their dream come true to visit Los Angeles this past weekend.

@Shavkat I do not blame you for wanting to get free tickets for a show that you like.

@Deepizzaguy Not necessarily so George. I really did not have much of a childhood so the things I buy I have fun with demonstrating and the kid in me comes out.
