| | |  Harry Potter Immortalized in...Butter? (UPDATED)
This year at the annual Iowa State Fair in Des Moines, IA, Harry Potter, Boy Wizard, stands proud and tall as a statue made entirely of butter, round glasses and all!
Also included with Harry are: The Fat Lady Painting, Monster Book of Monsters, Snitch, several books, and several potion bottles
The sculpture stands next to the famous butter cow, which has been a popular attraction at the fair since the '90s. The cow also dons Potter glasses in honor of his new company!
Here is a video of both attractions! UPDATE: Thanks to HarryHermione you can now see 3 pictures from the event in our galleries here! | |

I've camped at this fair since I was a baby - and I was so excited when our local paper wrote about this! I've seen butter Harry multiple times this past week already, and it looks amazing!
Included with Harry: The Fat Lady Painting, Monster Book of Monsters, Snitch, several books, and several potion bottles
BTW: FIRST TO POST!!!!

__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back.

I go to the Iowa State Fair, like every year. This year, I don't think I'm going. So of course, this is the year they have an awesome Harry Potter butter statue.  | |
