A performance of a chess game with living pieces. A traditional event since 1954 in Morostica, Italy. The Sultan Mohammed is said to have played the first game at Grenada in 1408. Botvinnik drew with Riumin in 1962 and in 1962 with Smyslov.

Karpov, Kasparov, Korchnoi have absolutely destroyed chess by their immoral, unethical, prearranged games.

Robert Fischer
September, 1 1992
After the 2nd game I could have returned to Moscow. There was only one way I could have won this match. Boris Spassky (1974)
