As The Beatles took the court Thursday, one could hear the sing-song whispers from the opposing side stands, "You better run better run faster than my bullet." This didn't seems to phase The Beatles much, they had been here before. They had the bright lights and cameras on them, they recognized the pressure. It was a meager attempt to intimidate the veterans. As The Beatles huddled together before the start you could almost hear Paul McCartney say, "All Together Now."

Foster the People were sweating. The stank of their nerves filled the arena. They had heard The Beatles had been practicing "Eight Days a Week." Foster wasn't even sure how this could be done. They were feeling the pressure, and no one was sure they could "Carry That Weight." No one, I mean No one wanted to face The Beatles in their first appearance of Star Wars, regardless of how the teams were seeded. It comes down to experience and confidence, and at that moment Foster the People were choking back their vomit.

The game began, and just as Foster the People had feared the game was in the hands of The Beatles. They played with confidence and grace. Foster almost gave up after the alley-oop from Lennon to Starr was slammed in Mark Foster's face. But, Foster the People had come to play, and after that they decided to fight fiercely. Trailing by two with less than five minutes remaining. Mark Foster drew in the defence and then kicked the ball out to Cubbie Fink who drained an elegant three-pointer. For the rest of the game Foster the People held the lead, with a final score of 75-68.

Foster the People celebrated! On the other side of the court you could hear The Beatles grumbling with disappointment. Finally it was Lennon who was heard to have said, "Guys, 'Let it Be! They knew, like everyone else, that they would be back next year. The Star Wars Coaches couldn't resist a classic like The Beatles. 

Now with one game down, Foster the People are feeling cocky and fresh. Mark Foster was quoted at the end of the game saying, "All the other 'bands' with the pumped up kicks, you better run, better run!"
