I THOUGHT THIS ONE WAS APPROPRIATE FOR THE SEASON
There was a huge chess tournament in New York City. The matches were
held in the conference rooms at a large hotel. Each day, hundreds of
chess buffs would arrive very early at the hotel. Before the matches,
they would gather in the entry way.
The chess players would discuss how well they played the previous day.
Others claimed they had secret moves that would obliterate their
competitors. Finally, on the last day of the tournament, the hotel
manager ran out from behind the lobby desk and shooed them away.
One of the chess players asked why they were being forced to leave the
lobby. The hotel manager replied, "I''ve had enough of chess nuts
boasting in an open foyer."
