"I'm very proud of my son. That's the reason we sent him to college, to play Quidditch". lmao

I can maybe understand fantasizing about playing *actual* Quidditch with magical equipment and flying. I'm sure many HP fans have dreamed about it.

Assuming that was your fantasy, this idiotic real-world approximation hardly measures up. Lumbering around with a broom wedged in your taco doesn't exactly simulate graceful flight, and some jackass running away from you is not a magical winged Snitch.

It's one thing to dream...but making a fool of oneself is a step too far.

[Hannah Mcleod]

My fantasy has been turned into reality

[Marshall Bledsoe]

Wait. What about the Bludger

[iownab]

so if you try and catch the snitch, do you just run around acting like your chasing something as you grab at the air?

[naniquena]

DUH... can you fly???

[naniquena]

No, it's just 50 in Mugle Quidditch

[naniquena]

[Gemini Yoro]

This is too sad and too much.
