IT’S a magical sport.
We get all kinds of research
showing that fitness is a vital part

If not, maybe Quidditch is the
game for you, because yes, it
exists.
The third annual conference
of the International Quidditch
Association was held last week in
Washington and the sport now
has more than 4,000 players on
300 teams around the world, the
Washington Post reported.
The sport was played by nonmagical
people by running on a
field with brooms or PVC pipes
between your legs, throwing
balls to team mates and through
hoops, the publication reported.

female voice behind the phrase
that has made many a shopper
contemplate taking a baseball bat
to an inanimate object has been

actress, Helena Breck, the
Telegraph reported.

infuriating phrase, can be heard at
more than 10,000 supermarkets
in the country, it said.
