I usually don't pay attention to anything harry potter, but this is screaming for attention. I've never seen the game they play in the movies/book, but when I saw they're required to hold the broom between their legs and run..... This is going to join the ranks of everquest / d&d mock battles on youtube.
Harry Potter taken too far

But he admits he has to make concessions to reality. "A lot of that you can't really replicate exactly because we are not witches and wizards."

WELL NO SHIT YOU'RE NOT WITCHES AND WIZARDS! I'm glad I'm boycotting all that is Harry Potter. When there are far better authors out there that don't get anywhere near this much attention.
I can't wait for the series to end, so everyone can get over it and move on with their lives.

So I take it you're a fan? I mean how can you not be... Harry Potter rocks. Btw, I'd be geeky enough to try this out... I wouldn't join a team and treat it like a real sport though. It's just good fun.
I'll just have to keep my wand on me in case any dementors show up.

This is a general discussion right? Are we not generally discussing? Then all is well in the universe. Just because I don't share your views it doesn't mean I can't contribute to the discussion.
I'm not the type to say the books/films are shit and that everyone who reads/watches them are complete and utter morons. I haven't read/seen them, so I can't comment on them.
But feel free to verbally bash the only Anti-Potter person in history... After all, this is Polycount. Anything goes!

I think you just need replace wand with ".45" and dementors with "hecklers".

But a wand does so much more then a measly gun. Maybe I'll just duel wield a pair of wands. OR better yet I'll use a staff... it seems like a staff would be the shotgun of wands. Mwahahahaha.

Expecto Patronum!

Yeah, I don't doubt that for a second dude. I don't claim nor have I claimed that any Potter fan only reads Potter books.
Seriously... This is getting off topic. The thread is about college students running around with crotch brooms throwing volleyballs into hoolahoops.
Continue discussion.

I don't dislike Harry Potter, nor do I like Harry Potter. I've never read the books or seen the films. So I can't really have an opinion about the books or films. Which once again, isn't the topic of this thread.
ON TOPIC - Broom flying is fun. Nothing like the feel of hard wood between your thighs... errrrrrr DAMNIT!!!
Oh yeahz, Petrificus Totalus followed by a face stomp, that's some hard core schlitz right there
The books are wonderful, simply because it's one of the few popular books in a long long time to get kids, and even adults, into reading again. Anything, popular or not, that gets more people to read is a good thing, imo.
