Quidditch
The popular sport in the Harry Potter series, Quidditch is likened to rugby, but with players flying on broomsticks. With the popularity of the book and movie series, this fictional game has been adapted for real life. The real-life sport still includes broomsticks, but no flying. Teams can be found at various colleges and universities across the United States, including Texas A&M, Middlebury, University of Maryland, and New York University.
