Oh my.  They're much worse than what my school is.
Muggle Quidditch is loads of fun, actually. I got my Physical Education teacher to make us play it in class for like a week straight before of all the physical activity that's just in the Muggle way of Quidditch.

Is there a list of colleges with teams anywhere? I want to see if the college I'm going to has a team.

__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

I've done a lot of research of Muggle Quidditch. I've been to Middlebury College before, and I loved watching people walk around with Middlebury Quidditch shirts. It is like a dream come true. Amazing, really!

I think bring Quidditch to our reality only makes the HP world seem more real to the ppl that love and enjoy the books and movie. It makes ppl feel like they are really apart of HP and his world ya know.
