That does make sense.  Once you've won the tournament, they couldn't 
expect you to make your way back out again - that would be stupid.  
(what if you ran into another competitor and there was a fight over 
the trophy etc).  So you grab it, you've won and now you are back in 
front of the entire school.  Perfect sense.  

So Moody added a stop at the graveyard.  He would have thought 
possibly that was the only stop. OR Possibly he could have known 
that about it's original use (taking the winner to the front of the 
maze) but supposed it wouldn't matter because Harry would be dead 
and unable to use it.

Thanks, Linda!  That's my theory and I'm sticking to it!
