Darth Vader was on top of a cop car, swinging a light saber and yelling, “Kill the pigs.” That’s one of the memories Tim Miller, an MSU student from 1979-83, has of the first official Cedar Fest in 1983. The event was semiannual, occurring in October and May, and often resulted in mass partying and property damage.
