Chewbacca Actor Battles TSA Over Light Saber Cane
North Texas resident and "Star Wars" Chewbacca actor Peter Mayhew had a dust-up with Transportation Security Administration agents in Denver when they attempted to confiscate his light saber-shaped cane.
Mayhew was retuing to Dallas-Fort Worth Inteational Airport from an appearance at Denver Comic Con early this week when TSA agents refused to let Chewie board his plane with one of a kind cane.
The 7-foot, 2-inch tall actor sat in a wheelchair at the airport as he pleaded with the agents and explained that he needed the cane to walk
Co-pilot: Harrison Ford with Peter Mayhew, who had his walking cane customized to look like a light saber
But it was only after the giant actor posted pics of the incident on his official Twitter account @thewookieroars that the agents relented and let him retu to north Texas with his light saber cane.
