The Quidditch World Cup was held last weekend. Yes, I did say “quidditch” and, yes, I am talking about real people playing an actual real-world version of the famous wizarding sport from the world of Harry Potter.

The November 13-14, 2010 event in New York marks the fourth year of the Quidditch World Cup with competing teams coming from schools across America, with a handful from Europe, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. There are even teams from Columbia, India, Korea, and Argentina.
