More DescriptionMagic messes up everything.
It always chooses the worst time to screw things up. Billy is fine. He keeps his magical life away from his normal life and he is happy. If not for his jealous girlfriend, life would be perfect. Then, everything happens at once.
Billy's passion is football. It's simple. It's enjoyable. It's pure. There is only one way to play and it's incorruptible, even by magic. Then someone cheats and his world falls apart. The most amazing player in decades turns out to be cheating magically. There is nothing Billy can do. The NFL is a fantasy world. It's on TV. It is real, but it's so far away. Yes, Billy can use magic, he has magical friends, but he is just a fast food manager. He can't do anything about anything.
Then, everyone in the world spontaneously transforms into centaurs. They don't transform into the traditional human upper torso with an equine lower body. They become centaurs with the lower bodies of a variety of different animals. The world is decimated overnight. People find themselves too small or too big for their vehicles. Cars and planes careen out of control and there is massive loss of life. The whole world is in chaos.
Finding out that one of his magical friends is inadvertently associated with the transformation, Billy learns that a magical event is going to take place in the near future. It's called Brianna's Call and it's the return of magic to the Earth. The only way that the world can transform back into their human bodies is for them to intercept Brianna's Call. In order to do that, Billy is forced join his favorite NFL team and take them to the championship game. Brianna's Call is going to touch down on Super Bowl Sunday at the Super Bowl.
Along the way, Billy must confront the cheating NFL player, battle powerful wizards intent on collecting Brianna's Call for themselves, and deal with a jealous girlfriend that isn't coping with the fact that Billy's best friend is a girl.
