Mount Up, Muggles

The Snitch Is Loose!


Intercollegiate (Muggle) Quidditch

More than 60 teams, including several from prestigious universities, are registered for the fourth annual Quidditch World Cup next weekend and count the sport among their extracurricular activities. Although they have yet to transcend laws of physics, or master whatever wizardry would elevate their game to the aerial version... But not bad for a game that just a few years ago existed only in the pages of the Harry Potter books the players grew up reading.
