The CBS Early Show ran a segment on muggle Quidditch in U.S. college campuses. There is hilarious footage of play-by-play of a game between Middlebury and Princeton.
You can view it here.

Muggle Quidditch is loads of fun, actually. I got my Physical Education teacher to make us play it in class for like a week straight before of all the physical activity that's just in the Muggle way of Quidditch. |

| I've done a lot of research of Muggle Quidditch. I've been to Middlebury College before, and I loved watching people walk around with Middlebury Quidditch shirts. It is like a dream come true. Amazing, really! |

| I think bring Quidditch to our reality only makes the HP world seem more real to the ppl that love and enjoy the books and movie. It makes ppl feel like they are really apart of HP and his world ya know. |
