October 2009: Quidditch World Cup at Middlebury College

Now celebrating its 5th year, the International Quidditch World Cup, invented at Vermont's Middlebury College as a real-life game based on J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter books, is a total blast. Part rugby, part soccer, part theater, the game is very physical, and the genius of the experience - making the snitch a real live human being who is fast of foot. Here's a quick look. - find out more at http://www.collegequidditch.com/

Get a life Harry Potter fanatics. "To each his own" is usually my motto, but come on, really? When you figure out how to make the brooms fly, it could possibly, maybe, nearly be awesome.
