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.

I don't think I can pass for 13 any more. Somehow, being 5'10 and 30 years old puts you past that stage. *g*

D@rn it!

Darn, I'm over 13. :( That would be so fun to enter, though. And I could probably make it New York on that day too.

Dang it!!! I guess they don't find it as amusing to see older people extremely addicted to Harry Potter. It is always 13 years and younger! Oh well! Good luck to everyone that gets to enter!

Again, age restrictions hinder those who desire to come forth. I can take the bus to New York, but too bad. The younger ones have all the luck. When will they ever hold a contest for those readers who are advanced in their years?

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.

How is it that an little kid-helped by a parent may i remind you- be a greater fan of Harry Potter than some who has created an incredible website like HPANA?!!!!!
Or someone who has read the series 10 times and attends every event possible?
what about those people? just because they are more mature and they entered this world earlier doesn't mean they arn't Harry's biggest fan!!!!!!!!

SamheinWitch7, I so agree with you. I'm tired of these contests for the younger fans. I'm going to quit Harry Potter altogether if there aren't equal opportunities for all fans.

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.
