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.

Oh that would be so cool. Hmmmmm... if only my dad actually read Harry Potter or my mom actually remembered a word hse read in the Harry Potter series. It's a pity really that my parents don't take a bigger interest in my interests.

The Harry Potter readers grew up with Harry so why are they still insisting that all competitions are under 13's, under 16's.

Too old, too far away, and too brain dead - I can never remember things under pressure.
Hope those who enter have fun.
Why do these guys always assume that HP is for kids??

Of COURSE it's only for little kids, because who ever heard of an older Harry Potter fan.

They should have a trivia contest for adults. There are plenty of HP fans out there that are adults, but they never have contests for us. It would be nice to be included once in a while. Oh well.

Gosh even if I was 13, my parent's don't no squat about Harry Potter. My dad fell asleep during the third movie at the movies. My mom hates reading and only reads Dr. Phil books.

Cool contest... except the age limit is too low for the majority of Harry Potter fans!!! >:O I'm so tired of all of these contests that have ridiculously low age limits. Why not have a contest for everyone that is broken up into divisions based on age??

Harry Potter is loved by all ages, maybe the Today Show would do better opening the contest to all ages, so everyone can see not only 13 year old kids are fans.
