The Bespin Ice Cream Man

This may look like the match of the decade, but the man who's only friend is vanilla will be too busy thinking about sprinkles to put up a good fight.  Owen will throw sand in his eyes with his left hand and break his nose with his right.

 "All right, shut up".

 

I think you fail to appreciate just how much the Bespin Ice Cream Man loves his ice cream. The man isn't an ice cream addict, as you seem to think he is, rather he is an ice cream connoisseur. Ice cream isn't an addiction to him that brings him down; it is a love that inspires him. That is why Owen would fail in this fight, the Bespin Ice Cream Man has a great passion for his favorite frozen treat, and you can BET he will bring that passion into the fight with him, and use it to give ol' Owen a beating he will never forget.

You're probably right in your assuming that Owen would have to resort to cheap tricks, like throwing sand in his opponents eyes, in order to win this fight. Maybe it will give him a bit of an advantage, but I'd still throw my money on the side of the man with previously frozen sugar and passion flowing through his veins than the old cheater of a water farmer (I mean, seriously, who the hell farms water? Why not just import the stuff? Other planets seem to have more than enough of it. If Owen had any intelligence at all, he'd invest in a decent sized cargo vessel, have the cargo area converted into a huge water tight tank, go to a planet where water is inexpensive and fill the thing up, then bring it back to Tantooine, bottle it, slap a pretty label on it, and sale it to the local corner stores and restaurants).

Melted from the cold, refreshing
snows of the ice world Hoth

Think about it, that would totally sell like hot cakes on a planet with two suns! Reading that even makes me thirsty, and I live in a place that is currently cold and wet, imagine the effect it would have on someone living on a hot, arid desert planet.
