'The Soup' snaps up photo of Millennium Falcon-shaped Parkland High School

You might want to take a peek out your window the next time you are flying over Parkland High School.
If you think the South Whitehall Township school's shape looks oddly familiar to that of a famous spacecraft, you are not alone.
TheSoupTV.com -- the website of the same E! television show hosted by "Community" star Joel McHale -- has snagged an aerial snapshot of the school that resembles the Millennium Falcon in George Lucas' "Star Wars" films.
The website says school officials deny the school's shape and design were modeled after the famous spacecraft flown by Han Solo and Chewbacca and that any resemblance is purely coincidental.

Is that you could actually make it to class on the other side of campus between bells since there is no "other side" of campus. Pretty nice layout if you ask me.
