Quidditch has come to our plane of reality.

You know, the Harry Potter game.

The Middlebury Mollywobbles defeated Vassar at this year's Intercollegiate Quidditch World Cup Fall Festival in Vermont.

The game involves two teams of twelve people each running around holding broomsticks between their legs and chasing the golden snitch.

Harry Potter's golden snitch was a magical flying orb, but in this game it's a guy running across the field with a tennis ball hanging from his shorts.

The object is to grab it. The tennis ball, not the shorts.

Has this hit U-Tube yet? It should be a hoot, maybe even funnier than those nut jobs with the light sabres who keep turning up.
