SEATTLE — In true Halloween spirit, Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman wore his Harry Potter costume, with wand in hand, to Wednesday's news conference.
SB Nation reports that it was actually Sherman's son's idea for his dad to dress up. But there's no doubt that Sherman is a legitimate Harry Potter fan:
Sherman says "Order of the Phoenix" is his favorite book.
He says that Quidditch is pretty tough compared to five quarters of football.
He considers himself a Gryffindor and not a Hufflepuff.
According to a New York Times article, he went to midnight screenings for the movies.
The Seahawks got first their first tie in franchise history Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals.
