On Wednesday, the Jacksonville Armada had a “Star Wars”-themed night, giving away toy lightsabers to its fans. Later matches will honor military members and teachers.

That’s Pride Night, on which the Armada will give away 1,000 rainbow scarves to show the soccer team’s support of the area’s LGBT residents.
