What if Quidditch is an idea that overlays the entirety of the series?

The seeker in the overall story is presumed to be, and probably is, Harry.  
But who knows?

It would be fun if at the end of the series a recap of all the action can be 
made to parallel the game.  JKR wouldn't have to hit us over the head with 
the comparisons.  The subtler the better?

SeventhSqueal  responds:

I think this is a fabulous theory! 
I'm not completely comfortable with Pettigrew as the Snitch, since Harry let the Snitch go in GoF.


Me now: Well, Harry doesn't really let Pettigrew go in GoF.  I think you might have meant PoA when Harry told Sirius and Lupin not to kill Pettigrew.  But, that is interesting because PoA is the first time Harry fails to capture the snitch;)  I think that's an interesting support for Quidditch paralleling the story:)
