pull a potter

Refers to how Harry Potter in the HP book series always gets stuff for no apparent reason and no one understands why.
To achieve something amazing against all odds, and usually undeserved. For instance, if the kid at the bottom of your class wound up valedictorian, he has just pulled a potter.

"That cokehead who just got out of school is running for governor? And winning?!"
"Yeah, that kid totally pulled a Potter."
