BIOGRAPHY:
Angus Buchanan (15 January 1847 – 21 February 1927) was a Scottish Squib. He was the son of pure-bloods John and Mary Buchanan (née Proctor). He grew up in a household comprised of eleven children.
Angus became famous in the both the wizarding and Muggle worlds. Angus was the only Squib to take part in the Sorting ceremony at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and later became a player on the Muggle Scottish rugby team. This association was responsible for wizards' part in-joke interest in rugby, and worldwide wizarding support of the Scottish team.
Later in Angus' life, he published My Life as a Squib, a groundbreaking worldwide bestseller that brought the plight of Squibs to the wizarding world's attention. After his death, he was honoured by both wizards and Muggles (an almost unique achievement in history). To this day, the Wizarding Supporters of Scottish Rugby Union meet on the eve of every Scottish international match to toast Buchanan's memory.
"Angus Buchanan became world-famous among wizards whilst also being celebrated among Muggles, a hitherto unknown achievement. Wizards of many nationalities began turning up to watch him play the sport."
