Let me just say that here, in front of your eyes, is the very first Journalist incognito Quidditch player! Yes, I know! You can’t believe your ears, and neither can I... well, believe your eyes, ‘cause, I ain’t saying it out loud! But it is the truth; I have been a Quidditch player for two games this year. In both games, I took on the role of a Chaser. And no, I wasn’t being pushed into playing these games!
During these games, I tried to experience the feelings of what a Quidditch player feels. Why do they love to play Quidditch, and just how does it feel to fly around on your broom to toss the quaffle (wait, it’s called that right?) through the loop. And then… SCORE!
Yeah, I wouldn’t know how it feels like, because I haven’t been able to score in either of those games. I think I got a bit closer at scoring in my second game. The first game… let’s just be honest, it was dramatic. I can’t believe my eyes when I look back on that game.
