8 to 11 years old?! Why do contests pick such young age restrictions - don't they know that most of us have grown up with Harry... and aren't eleven anymore? Sigh.

L0L. i think most of us are too old for that

agreed, however after so many years learning to just say 'good luck, kids!' is a good idea.:)

those kids weren't even around when it started. most of them were much to young to be a true part of it all. still, good luck little kids. meanwhile......... ..WARNER BROS FAILS AGAIN. NO PREVIEW IN MANYYYY THEATERS. STRIKE 2.

Someone should really do a big contest like this for the older ones. My sister's nine and she doesn't fully grasp the concept of Harry Potter. In fact I think the only reason she likes it is because I do. Not all of us in the late teens or twenties who've read Harry from early on haven't forgotten him. Sigh.

WTF @ 8-11

EIGHT TO ELEVEN? hell thatz so not fair!!! =( I hardly think there r more fanz in tht age group thn in the elder one! i really really wish i cud participate, WANNA MEET J.K.....!!!! :P

8-11?! OH COME ON! ARE THEY MORE SPECIAL OR SOMETHING?! NOW THE REST OF US FEEL...WELL...UNSPECIAL!! !!!!!!!!!!! I WANNA MEET JK SO BADLY! SHES MY HERO :'(

the kids who are 8-11 now didn't grow up with the insanity of book releses... expand it up to 18? pretty please with a doughnut?

Hey, don't feel so bad! I am well past the age limit. I would love to meet JKR, thank her for the books and ask a few more questions.

8-11 ?? 8-11 ?? OMG!!! That is like so not cool!

i thought it said she was pregnant

Eight...to...eleven. *sigh* Those kids won't even understand the opportunity enough to fully appreciate it. Meeting JKR is my DREAM (since i don't know what I want to be), but these kids are more special apparently.

stop being ignorant complainers! u dont have 2 have been born with sorcerers stone came out 2 be a "true" hp fan! u guys r just mad that u cant enter the contest but guess what. i cant either. but i was 11 3 months ago so i know were not stupid and dont "appreciate" harry potter. am i not a true part of it all since i was like 2 when the 1st book came out!? u dont have 2 be a certain age 2 love harry potter!

I would love to go if I could win tickets. Unfortunately, I'm not aged 8-11. Darn. I've been reading Melissa Anelli's book Harry, A History, and it really is making me wish I could have gone to any of the J.K. Rowling events.

thank you rob1007

My comment is going to much like everyone elses: 8-11??? What? (Can I just make it clear that this comment is not inferring that those aged 8-11, or any age that isn't mine, are not proper fans) Older fans get left out. The fact is when I first read the books nearly all of the entrants to this comp will not have been born. I sometimes feel that the older fans are discriminated against. The first book is aimed at about 11 year olds. The later books are for teenagers to young adults (in my opinion). So I read the first book when I was the right age... it isn't my fault I grew up. Ah well... I *will* meet JKR one day... hopefully *sigh*

8-11?! WHAT?! The majority of Harry Potter fans are older then that!

I AM SO WITH angelina_johnson92 !!!!!!!!!! The older fans are left out, and that doesnt make us feel any better. :(

geez. sum age restriction. i dont think alot of 8 year olds read harry potter now a days..=/
