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.

Well, I know I am a big HP fan, and so are my kids, but unless I answer all of the questions, I don't think it would help us! They haven't read all of the books yet! ;o)

Once again they have a contest for the children and still nothing for us adult fans of this wonderful books. I guess someday they will figure out that these books have a much wider fan base then just those under the age of 16 (or 13 in this case.)

I know i'm crazy but...remember in Harry POtter and the goblet of fire...harry can be one of the champion because he is not 17 and he didn't put his name...so to all those that can put their names because they don't have the age (and me!!!) may be we can put our names and just says... we are chosen (if we are...)too late..we're like Harry!!!
but i know it's stupid!!!

DARN! On July 14th I'm going to be picking someone up from the airport. NOOOOO!!! I know I'm not the number one Harry Potter fan, as much as I wish I was, my frugality out weighs my excitement. I don't have the book: "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them"

Well, I at least hoped to be able to watch the Today show when they had this on, but being a responsible adult, I must work instead. Bum.

Everyone here is 13 or older..what is the point of this article then being posted on here. THat is unfair to the older HP fans, which there are most likely more of.

My brother is 13 so I just bought him the new Half-Blood Prince Book 6 Trivia Book by author Daniel Lawrence on amazon.com. I wanted to get as much HBP insight and info as possible in case he gets selected for NYC.

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.

Even if I was under 13 how can you write an essay under 50 words. That is what the real challenge would be.

Why under 13? why not under 18? Harry Potter was 14 when he was in the Tri-Wizard Tournament! Why can't a 15 year old play in the test?!
