LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KTHV) -- It's "Star Wars Day" today and it is expected to be celebrated around the world by fans of the films.

While you might bump into a random Storm Trooper today, you're more likely to see fans observing the Jedi holiday online.

The official Star Wars website has a number of games, videos and fan gear for sale in honor of the day. You can also send Star Wars e-cards to your friends, see a list of Star Wars deals and events, get a sneak peek of Star Wars books and comics, even get a Star Wars cover and profile pictures.

Star Wars Day is held because "May the Fourth" sounds a lot like the films' catch phrase, "May the force be with you."
