| | |  HBP on sale at a baseball game
Potter fans will be able to purchase ' Half-Blood Prince' at the New Haven County Cutters baseball game on Friday, July 15th. R.J. Julia Booksellers of Madison will have 500 copies of J.K. Rowling’s sixth Harry Potter book on sale at the stroke of midnight. Quote:
The ballpark will be transformed into a Hogwarts School atmosphere, while staff will be dressed as Hogwarts students and professors. All fans are encouraged to come in costume. Throughout the evening, fans will be treated to broomstick races, Harry Potter trivia, jelly bean contests, and more.
After the Cutters game, there will be more entertainment to keep fans busy as they eagerly await midnight. All kids will be invited to participate in a Quidditch match that will be set-up in the outfield.
“I don’t know which character I’ll choose this year,” Ms. Webb, Cutters General Manager, joked. “I dressed up as Hermione when the fifth book was released, but now it’s probably more appropriate for me to be Professor McGonagall.

Sounds like a lot of fun. Pity, Malaysians arent that creative.. T.T Or if they are, they aren't doing anything about it. Hopefully someone from SS or one of the sites that do go, will give us a full account? Even if everyone will have their noses stuck in books at the time XD But it will be fun to read about it latert...

Oh, that sounds like loads of fun! But only 500 copies?? Are they sure that's enough?? I would hate to go there just to find out they've sold out... but will stay for the theme party anyway  | |

This sounds like so much fun! I want to go so bad but it's halfway across the country so there is no way that I can.
