If you were a weird kid like me growing up in the early 2000s, you’re sure to know the greatest wizard of all time. No, not Gandalf the White, you nerds (although I guess he was pretty sick). But back to the important stuff. That’s right, ladies and gentlemen, everything in between and outside of it, I’m talking about Harry Potter. Who am I kidding, he was never that great of a wizard, he merely assembled the greatest team of all time. And I guess you didn’t have to be weird to love him. Still, he gets mad props for defeating He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.
