Face Beat It kicks off our Drunk Quidditch History series with the iconic quidditch fantasy tournament: Snow Cup. Sequoia Thomas talks Elizabeth Barcelos through the history of the tournament, from its origins outside in the snow with real and merc teams, to its current state as quidditch’s premiere winter event, before looking into the future of Snow Cup and how quidditch has changed along with it.
