Every year about this time, each crew starts coming up with different ideas for rest stop themes. Each stop is always a surprise for the walkers and is usually pretty amusing. Over the years, the crews have come up with some imaginative stops, with such themes as a wedding, Mardi Gras, pajama party, Star Wars, the Eighties, Halloween, The Wizard of Oz, villains, OktoberFest, and a Hawaiian luau, to name but a few. I wish I could name more, but like I said I never get to see the other stops!
I have seen some of the ideas which have come up for suggestion this year, and they are great. But the real point of this post is to ask you, the walkers, what would you like to see? Maybe a movie theme? Gone with the Wind? Maybe a profession? Doctors and nurses? Give us some ideas! Who knows, you may see your suggestion at one of the stops.

pirates
star trek
sesame street
birthday party
the muppets
Celebrities and Paparazzi
Infomercials (real or fictional)
typical high school social cliques
Mission: Impossible, or some other spy theme
I agree with Cheryl: Star Trek is very much in vogue. And around mile 35, I think it'd ease some walkers' doubts for them to know they'll "live long and prosper"!
Here's a few ideas for themes…
