emwatsonsuperfan Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 I'm on the quidditch team at my school and played in the Quidditch World Cup in November and quidditch has seriously been one of the best experiences of my college career so far. Does your school have a team? Have you ever watched or played a game? If not, I reeeally recommend it. If you don't know about muggle quidditch and want it explained, I explain it in the beginning of this video, hahahttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AfytB2yntc And if you're interested, here's a musical montage of a bunch of my shots from the QWC: Link to post Share on other sites

emwatsonsuperfan Posted December 31, 2010 Author Share Posted December 31, 2010 ^Of course, you don't like Harry Potter! :] If you went to the world cup, you'd probably like it. I know there are plenty of non-potter fans who play purely for the sport aspect. It's a straight-up fun sport. Don't assume it's not just because we carry brooms. Link to post Share on other sites
Will Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 It seems fun, kind of disorganized, and for some people absurd, but still funny. Maybe if that sport would become popular, the Harry Potter's cast are interested to see some games xD Link to post Share on other sites
emwatsonsuperfan Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 It seems fun, kind of disorganized, and for some people absurd, but still funny. Maybe if that sport would become popular, the Harry Potter's cast are interested to see some games xDHah, that'd be amazing. Trust me, a few of us really bothered a few HP stars on their Twitter to try to get them to come to the World Cup, because it was the day before and the daybeforebefore the New York premiere!! I'm sure people like Matthew Lewis or Warwick Davis or the Phelps twins woulda been all over it, but they weren't in NY for the premiere. :/ It is really popular though. :] You can look at the lists of teams at http://www.internationalquidditch.orgThere were about 50 teams (of 20 people each) at the World Cup this year. :] Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like to play it some day, you know, for fun. J.K. Rowling has to be kind of proud of that xD True, but It isn't a serious sport is it? loland it is a bit lolSerious sport like baseball, football, tennis, etc, i don't think so. But does it matter? xD Link to post Share on other sites
emwatsonsuperfan Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 True, but It isn't a serious sport is it? lol and it is a bit lolWe take it seriously, but not seriously enough that we forget how to be silly every once in and while and have fun with it. :] It's freakin quidditch afterall, you can't take it TOO seriously. There are talks of making it an NCAA sport though.http://espn.go.com/blog/sportscenter/post/_/id/88878/quidditch-from-harry-potter-to-the-ncaa Link to post Share on other sites

It's really intense but at the same time everyone's aware of how silly it is so everyone's just really happy and cool and it's a really good time. Link to post Share on other sites
ckravitz Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 (edited) It definitely looks interesting, and looks like the players are having a lot of fun. It also looks entertaining to watch. But it looks so silly with the brooms . I guess it adds to the challenge, though. Edited January 6, 2011 by ckravitz Link to post Share on other sites

I guess it adds to the challenge, though.Dumbledore did call it "The most ancient and silliest of all wizard games." :] And yeah it def adds to the challenge because you basically only have one hand to manage the quaffle or bludger.
