It's time for a confession. While the Arts Department is decidedly un-sporty, one thing we LOVE is the Olympics. Accordingly, we were completely delighted when we realized we had our very own Shaun White at Tufts in sophomore RJ Phannenstill. Our glee was compounded by RJ's resemblance to ANOTHER star, the Harry Potter movie series' Rupert Grint (better known as Ron Weasley). We found RJ somewhere between the halfpipe and the Quidditch field and quizzed him about his two almost-clones.
Question: Would you rather have a gold medal or the Triwizard Cup?Answer: If it was chocolate... both. Like a chocolate medal or a cup I could drink chocolate out of.
Q: Is it harder to execute a 540 or a Patronus Charm?A: It depends if my wand is broken or my snowboard is cracked in half.
Q: Who's the bigger bad boy: Draco Malfoy or Bode Miller?A: Well, at least Draco doesn't have to wipe bong water off his chin before the downhill.
Q: How extreme is Shaun White?So f-ing extreme it's not even funny.
Q: So we know Harry is the brave one and Hermione is the smart one. What's Ron good at?A: (Long pause, confused look as he thinks it over) Well, you can take him home to your mom, he could be a Harry Potter stunt double. He's probably a good accountant and he reads to little kids on the weekend.
