August 1994
Ireland won. 170-160. Viktor Krum had caught the snitch, but Ireland won. The crowd went wild as Krum and Lynch had raced for the snitch. Bulgaria may not have won but Krum kept them from the shame of a 320-10 loss at least.
Ron couldn't believe it, but he was still just as content with the fact that Krum had indeed caught the snitch. But Fred and George? Fred and George Weasley were ecstatic. They knew it.

"If we do some quick maths in our heads.."
"I'd say somewhere around eight-hundred and sixty galleons!" Fred opened up the duffle just enough to expose the shiny coins.
"Merlin! Bloody good for you bunch then!"
"See Hermione-"
"We told you it'd be fine!"
"Well I've never been happier to be wrong then."

BOOM!
The entire tent shook.
"Bloody hell!"
"Everyone sure is rowdy tonight!" George laughed.
