The list for November 19, 1997
The Top 15 Chess Club Meeting Pick-up Lines
- "Hey, baby, what say we go into that coat closet and search in my pants for Bobby Fischer, if you know what I mean?"
- "The knight is still young. Your place or my parents’?"
- "Shall our next game be at your place or at my $60M mansion?"
- "Who did your braces?"
- "Bet I can make you squeal in less than ten moves."
- "I promise my Bishop will wear a little hat…"
- "Hand to Queen’s Thigh One!"
- "Forget Deep Blue. Say hello to Deep Stu."
- "Honey, if this were checkers, I’d jump you right now!"
- "Nice set."
- "Anyone ever tell you you have the ass of a Grandmaster?"
- "I could study your French opening all day long."
- "Hi. Gary Kasparov once stepped on my hand."
- "I love the way you thrust your rooks deeply into my territory. I’m too weak to counter."
And the Number 1 Chess Club Meeting Pick-up Line…
- "Is that the Homer Simpson chess piece from the Franklin Mint collection in your pocket, or are you just packing a roll of quarters for the video arcade?"
