Harry Potter and the Museum of Science and Industry

by Dave the Longwinded on May 31, 2009

If you’re in Chicago this summer and can’t score tickets to Wrigley Field, plan a trip the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry, instead.  The Museum is running an exhibition of props, scenery, and creatures from the Harry Potter films.

The museum’s webpage states:

They will also be able to take a tour through Hagrid’s hut, enter a Quidditch™ area to toss a “Quaffle,” and may even encounter a few creatures like Buckbeak™ or a giant Acromantula spider along the way.

The idea is to pay tribute to the skills of all those contributing to the films.  No word on whether or not Michael Gambon is given his proper tribute…

Ah, no trips to Wrigley Field for me this year…unless I win the lottery. I’m going to San Fran & the Giants aren’t even in town that weekend. Poor planning by the HPEF folks, I say. :)

revgeorge, well…it is the Giants. But, I guess I would go to AT&T Park (or whatever it’s called, now) if I had the opportunity.
