January-December 2007 The State of Oklahoma commisioned the Rocketman to represent the states 150th anniversary celebration. The video's above consist of the many different appearances through out the state. What a pleasure to meet an inspiration to The Rocketman and for George Lucas to see a Boba-Fett style Rocket Pack in live action. See the Boba Fett flight performed later that year.

In a two-hour parade that garnered nonstop cheers, the "Oklahoma Rising" float, celebrating the state's 100-year anniversary, got a standing ovation.

Spectators knew something different was about to happen when volunteer workers ran by urging everyone to cover their ears because a large noise was about to be heard.

Suddenly a man wearing a rocket booster blasted off the float, flying about 100 yards before returning to land.

"The flying man was so cool," said Mark Wong, 39, from San Gabriel.

One of the most remarked-upon aspects of the Tournament of Roses version 2007 was the dude with the rocket pack.
