To coincide with the release of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince the Today Show is asking
, "Are you the BIGGEST Harry Potter fan?"
Well if you think you are and are under the age of 13 you may enter Today's Harry Potter Total Trivia Tournament. You will need to tell the Today Show in 50 words or less why you think you deserve to participate in the trivia tournament.
According to the site:
Hey all you muggles out there. Are you the BIGGEST Harry Potter fan? Do you think you have what it takes to be in Today's Harry Potter Total Trivia Tournament? This is no Triwizard tournament with dragons, eggs or mazes, but a test nonetheless. Well if you are under the age of 13 and have a parent willing to be your partner, then tell us in 50 words or less why you think you deserve to hold court on the plaza and vie for the crown to be the Harry Potter Total Trivia Tournament Champion. Include your name and contact number where we can best reach you. You must be available to come to New York City for the contest on Thursday, July 14th. Will our Goblet of Fire choose you?
Good luck to all who enter & if by chance you know of any who is chosen please let us know.
Thanks to everyone who let us know.

I don't know... I'm fanatic about Harry Potter, but the age limit seems a bit strict. I still think I shouldn't qulify at 19, but I think that it should be 15 and under or something like that. Those who are 13 were barely able to read the first one when it came out.

I think that there is just as many adults who love these books just as much as there is children. It is not fair that all this stuff applies to only the little ones. Oh well good luck to the kiddies out these who are entering.

I don't pretend to be the biggest Harry Potter fan. I love the HP series but I think that those fans who have pretty much memorized the entire contents of the "HARRY POTTER LEXICON" website and the biggest fans.
Congrats to whoever makes it.

I agree with everyone that the competition is aimed at a too younger audience because the books have been out for quite some time and I think alot more fans are over the age of 13.
Oh well I'm way too old.

Okay people...what about those of us who are twice that age??? We love Harry too and we want to play those kinds of games and lets be honest...we could do far more fun and interesting things with adults!

Well for the few of us who are 13 and under - good luck! For the rest of us (which there is a lot) - I guess we can only dream for the day when we can get cool free stuff for being old harry potter fans...

I'm pretty much positive I would win, but I'm not under 13, seeing as how you have to be 13 to join this website. Some little kid out there is pretty lucky though.
