Harry Potter May Be Fiction But Quidditch Is A Real Sport.

I don't know about anyone else, but I am beyond excited to see the newest potter film, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows this weekend. So I guess I am just all about Harry Potter today. But anyways, I came across this article about people playing their own version of Quidditch. Apparently the "Quidditch World Cup" was last weekend. Almost fifty clubs came to play in the tournament, and one Canadian team endured a dozen hours on buses for the chance to compete on the Big Quidditch Stage. The University of Rochester resorted to shack up in the homes of friends and families all over New York City to accommodate everyone in between matches. Alexander Manshel and Alex Benepe of Middlebury College founded the International Quidditch Association and then made it into an organization with hundreds of teams throughout the country and world. Before the World Cup, visiting clubs were invited to a small park to perform their school cheers and many broke out into songs and dances, shouting Quidditch! While most of the players are doing their best to throw the Quaffle (a deflated volleyball) through hula hoop goal posts, there's an endurance chess match going on where seekers try to run down and capture a neutral player called the snitch. If you have read the harry potter books and/or seen the films, you know all about what I'm talking about. I just thought this was fun and interesting!
