The Force has its limitations. For example, baseball.

Darth Vader threw out the first pitch for the Los Angeles Dodgers recently, to promote the new "Star Wars Kinect" videogame released on Xbox. Flanked by two stormtroopers, Vader bounced the ball past a diving catcher and was heartily booed by the crowd.

We'll try to cut Vader some slack, since he does have a robotic hand, but booing the bad guy is a no-brainer, really. (Hat-tip to Grantland.)
