For anyone that’s gotten<br />
lost in a fictional book, living<br />
out that world seems like<br />
the genre – fantasy. However,<br />
on Sunday, April 8,<br />
the magic of Harry Potter<br />
was lifted off the pages and<br />
brought to life as witches<br />
and wizards of all ages gathered<br />
at the Frankfort Public<br />
Library to learn the basics of<br />
Quidditch with players from<br />
Loyola University’s Lumos!<br />
Quidditch Club.<br />
For the unacquainted,<br />
Quidditch is a mixed-gender<br />
contact sport with a unique<br />
mix of elements from rugby,<br />
dodgeball, and tag. The<br />
sport was originally created<br />
by Harry Potter author J.K.<br />
Rowling but was adapted to<br />
a real-life “muggle” sport<br />
in Middlebury, Va. in 2005.<br />
The basic rules don’t vary<br />
