Disneyworld would go broke if more people followed that idea. Besides

Because it was on the wrong site at the wrong time. The owners asked

*giggle* Good imitation of professor McGonagall there
suddenly gets the idea to do a "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's
Stone according to ABM-L" kind of gig, casting the regulars of the
list as characters in the play
Let's see ... Professor McGonagall, check. Troll, check. Professor
Snape ... hmm, that is going to be a problem I guess...

Shortly after hordes of Harry Potter fans[1] drag the ogre out
of the tavern towards some unknown (but undoubtedly gruesome)
fate for not knowing about their hero, Marian staggers in. She
looks rather cross-eyed and generally even less coherent than
usual. "I have a bit of a headache" she mumbles to nobody in
particular before passing out.
