There are a number of reasons why I’m not super proud of having gone to Vassar however none of those reasons can eclipse this.

Mary Milan originally brought it to my attention a few weeks ago when she thumbed through a recent issue of the monthly almuni magazine but I must have blocked it out.

Seriously, if you’re in any office that deals with past students or future students and you get a hot tip that the kids are playing Quidditch in Noyes Circle, you gotta supress that fucking shit, NOT promote it.

It’s just not shit you want people to know because neither alums nor prospective students will want to associate with a school that offers quidditch as a sanctioned NCAA D-III intramural sport.

It’s like an outbreak of Ebola; you must contain and kill.

For all you fuckers out there saying that it’s not any different than ultimate frisbee, shut the fuck up. Those bitches are running around with brooms.

Brooms!

BROOMS!

My head is going to explode.

Kee-rist! I’m so sorry.

The more and more I think about it, the crazier it is. Beyond the multitude of reasons why this is terribly lame, one thing keeps getting me: with the singular exception of making its “athletes” look like assholes, there is no reason to have people running around with brooms since in real life, brooms do not serve to aid flight. It seems like it could be an almost perfectly respectable game of dodge ball if you just took the brooms away…

“Athletes”, Johnny? Even in italics, I don’t think there are any athletes at Vassar…I think what you meant to say was “making its theatre majors look like assholes”.

It’s reports like this that make me thankful I went to school with Michael Bennet.

I think we should start a Quidditch fantasy league.

Only if I can get that guy who missed the Quidditch slam into the garbage can. He may seem a little rough around the edges now but I foresee him to be a franchise player.

I’m going to make the snitch my first impact player in the draft. He go fast speed.
