...there is indeed a Quiddich team at UR. The team currently competes at the club level, but it would appear to only be a matter of time before it reaches varsity D1 status:

I'm stunned that people didn't know that we actually had a Quidditch team...doesn't every university have one?

There are about 120 or so.

But thoughts of D1 quidditch are pretty ridiculous.

If I had a flying broomstick, I'd definitely play.

If I had a gazillion dollars, so would I.

Is Dungeons and Dragons a D-1 sport too?

The New Jersey UR kids can afford the flying broom sticks. What the hell is the insurance on those things?

Only if you have your own set of 20-sided dice and strong graph paper mapping skills...
