A girl is talking A boy is talking while he is talking a group of kids go to what looks like a soccer field and pick up the various materials that are listed by the boy that is talking. As the music is playing the kids start playing a game of Quidditch. |
I like the sports parts of the book because Quidditch brings another little craze to the book. Quidditch is always a sport played upon broomsticks. There are four balls-- two bludgers, one quaffle, and a snitch. [MUSIC PLAYING] Yes. Got it. Get him. You did it. |

A boy wearing a white shirt is talking. As he talks about Quidditch it flashes to kids playing the game. |
Basically, Quidditch is the best game there is, better than football, rugby, you name it. And basically, the best bit is when you win the game, and the seeker just tries and gets the snitch. Yes. When Harry and Hermione and Neville lost 150 points Gryffindor, I was like, oh, no. They've lost it, and they're going to come in last place again. In the end, they made up those points, and I was like, yes, I can't believe they've done it. Whoa. I think the Quidditch scenes are written with a lot of energy. You might not see the energy, but the way she writes the energy you sense is just there. |

She wrote them like this was really something to get excited about. This was the thing in the wizarding world to be excited about. Everybody follows Quidditch. You've got to know the rules, or you're a thing of the past kind of thing. [MUSIC PLAYING] Yes. Oh. Aw. Ooh. |
