Honestly, Quiddich is a nonsense game just designed to make the protagonist more important. Imagine in a football game that if you’re up by 45 points but not only could a player score 48 points at once but also end the game. People would know that was bullshite. JK Rowling clearly doesn’t understand sports if she thinks this sport could exist no matter what fantasy scenario.

Rowling should claim copyright and sue them for using her work.

It clearly does exist. It's a super legit sport with world class athletes.

This is literally impossible. She created the "sport".


When you wanna be woke but not all the way woke, you just change the name but keep playing it, because you don't want to go that far for your virtues.

She should find a reason to sue all those fricks for some kind of intellectual property infringement or something.

Did they change the scoring for real life Quidditch or is still just as retarded as in the books?

The leagues say there are a few reasons for the name change. Among them is that the name "quidditch" is trademarked by Warner Bros., which produced the "Harry Potter" movies, and as a result the sport's expansion has been limited in its sponsorship and broadcast opportunities.

Hey, you know that game you invented in the books you wrote? Well we’ve built a whole identity around those books and made a real life game out of it.


But because you aren’t kowtowing to our mental illnesses we’ve convinced everyone else that you are evil now.

So we’re still gonna keep all your stuff but act like you didn’t create it

I wonder how many of them had this tattooed on them, only to have to get it lasered off when Rowling turned out to not be the batshit leftist they thought she was.

How does the seeker find the snitch in these games?

Do they just hide a golden ball somewhere in the field like an Easter egg hunt?

Then, in 2020, she mocked a headline that used the phrase "people who menstruate," which trans advocates noted is meant to be inclusive of trans men and nonbinary people who still have periods.

My favorite. I do love how these Leftists love Harry Potter but are too stupid to see they are Umbridge and the Death Eaters.
