This past weekend, Michael Rooker was in Indianapolis, Indiana for Wizard World Comic Con and while he was there he participated in a game of Quidditch.

For you muggles, Quidditch is a fictional competitive sport from the Harry Potter franchise. Players fly around on brooms and throw balls through ring-shaped hoops to gather points. There's also a game within the game which involves one player from each team, who is called a Seeker, that goes after a golden ball with wings, which is called a Golden Snitch. It is extremely difficult to capture, but if a Seeker does they get loads of points for their effort.

The game was so popular that it has been adapted in the real world. During a muggle Quidditch match this past weekend Michael Rooker, who is best known for playing 'Yondu' in Guardians of the Galaxy and 'Merle' in The Walking Dead, played in it and was made the Golden Snitch. Watch him toss a Seeker.

Guardians Of The Galaxy 2 will arrive in theaters May 5, 2017.
