To coincide with the release of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince the Today Show is askingopens in new window, "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.

Geez!! There should be a contest for 13-18 people. Its not like all the fans for harry potter are under 13. Oh well, i probably wouldn't even be able to go NY.

I wish I could join!!! I love Trivia and Harry Potter, so it could have been really cool! I seem to be to old for all these competitions. Annoying! There are very many older Harry Potter fans too!

Once again, I am thrilled for the youngsters able to participate in this contest, but once again, I am disappointed that there is no corollary opportunity for youth or adult fans.

Darn! I was under thirteen almost four years ago! Even my younger sister is too old, even though she isn't much of a fan. Oh well. Whoever gets chosen, good luck, and may the supposedly biggest fan win! Biggest fan under 13, that is!:)

That really isn't fair. I wonder why they want the contest to be only for people under 13. I can almost gaurante that the biggest Harry Potter fan in the world is probably not under 13 years old.

I'll be sure to watch that but won't enter. For one thing, I don't meet the age requirement, and even if I did, I'm horrible at trivia. Harry Potter is the BEST EVER, but my mind has trouble storing information. Anyway, my essay to participate would be way over 50 words.

Has anyone noticed that everyone on this site is too old. Perhaps we should start a petition to get the Today Show to have a contest for older fans, seeing as they are discriminating based on age. Furthermore, they lack a proper Age Line for such a restriction anyway.
