Harry: ‘Put me, Harry Potter, in this dump, will you? Well, see how you like it, Tom the Barman, when I drop my shoes on your ceiling repeatedly all night long. That’ll teach you to shortchange the Boy Who Lived!’
-Danielle E.
Harry: ‘Hmmm… Bad smells, deteriorating wallpaper, uneven floors, an uncomfortable bed, cold and drafty room… HOORAY! BETTER THAN THE DURSLEYS’!’
-Talia
Harry searches for proof that Barry Bond’s homerun record is not the product of steroids, but is in fact that the last seventh of Voldemort’s soul is stored inside his right shoe.
-Kris
Ron: *From off-screen* ‘NO, Harry! Its floo powder you throw in the fire, not shoe powder!’
-Melt
Due to the national shortage on tennis balls, Daniel Radcliffe had to deliver his lines to a tennis shoe.
-Nib
Harry: Wow, I thought they put the chocolates on your pillow in a hotel…
Hedwig: *Thinking* Well, Harry, they do. I was the one who left you the present in your shoe…
-Greene
Harry: *Talking to Sirius in the fire* ‘Well… d’ya like my new shoes?’
-Amy H.
When will you learn, Harry? A stiletto does more damage!
-Morgan
Twas the night before Hogwarts, when all through the house,
Not a Dursley was stirring, not even a mouse.
The shoes were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that Dumbledore soon would be there.
-Mildred
Off-screen Narrator: ‘By carefully holding the end of the shoe string, our hero has created a simple pendulum. The shoe (or bob) will start to swing in a wide circle, and by seeing whether it circles clockwise or counter-clockwise, our hero will know whether he is in the northern hemisphere or southern hemisphere. Let this be a lesson to us all, a shoe and shoestring can become a simple GPS, helping everyone to know which hemisphere they are in. This makes dark-wizard fighting all the easier!’
-Sue T.
In hopes of growing taller, Daniel Radcliffe sacrifices a shoe to appease the gods.
-Mugsy
Harry: Gee, I wonder if I should drop this Nike brand sneaker in order to lure out the monster book?
Hedwig: Just Do It!
*Warner Brothers earns $5,000,000*

Strangely-Carved-Furniture Museum Tour Guide: ‘And… next on our list, we have number 58: ”Boy-Dropping-Shoe-Bed-Post”.’
-Violet
Notice: Due to a shortage of brooms, the House Quidditch teams have decided to use flying crosstrainers this year.
Harry: ‘UP! UP! Oh, how am I supposed to mount this thing? Besides, it smells like Dudley’s old socks.’
-Glen
…and so Harry threatened to drop the Old Lady Who Lived in a Shoe’s house and children for more answers after finding out that Voldemort had forced out of her former home, Hufflepuff’s cup, to make room for a sixth of his torn soul…
-Savannah R.
*Paint peels from walls*
Harry: ‘HEY! My shoes don’t smell THAT bad!’
-Racheal
Since they don’t get HBO in the Leaky Cauldron, guests had to find their own ways of entertain themselves.
-JenJen
I spy an owl, and a broomstick too,
A lamp, a picture, and a place for Floo.
Nine different legs, a monstrous book,
A nail by a window; now you look!
-Ornjbreezy
Harry: ‘Book Monster, you should meet my friend Hermione some time. She’s a book worm…’
-Abby
Harry: *To himself* ‘I saw this is a Calvin and Hobbes comic once – it must work!’
-Stephanie
Dumbledore realized that Harry needed more contact with his friends when he started playing ‘Oh no, the floor is made of lava’ with his owl.
-Marli
