lol

gotta remeber

well its a good idea, but sadly so many in the USA are so dumbed down they probably don't know what chess is!!! , although in many other countries the game is more popular i realize,  I think its just better to keep getting the game in the school system, and actively playing at clubs or online.  Plus if you proclaim a chess day, it invites mockery from loser comedians and similar lowlife!!!

i garauntee everyone here that 70% of the U.S. dont know there is a national chess day!

I had no idea there was a national chess day!  And I love to play chess!

you learn something every day.....

now if only i could get off work to play chess on national chess day.

Like the elephantwizard said you learn something new everyday. gotta remember to put that on my calender.

95% of  America doesnt know national chess day

Well i need to mark this one on my calender =)

Everybody's invited to my house for beer, pizza and a rousing game of chess. October 9 is close to Canadian Thanksgiving so we can make it a double event. Of course by October 9 winter has pretty much set in up here so bring your woolies and don't forget to call Sled Dogs R Us to reserve your sled and huskies.

after beer and pizza youd probably win the games.especially with me.

Happy chess!

already celebrating with a win over a class a that was 300pts over my rating!!!

Now I know.I didn't even think that a 'National Chess Day' even exsisted!

My birthday is on national Chess day!!!!

Never knew that! Got to remember!!!

there should be a chess month - the benefits that come from playing chess warrant that kind of recognition. chess should be a part of every school's curriculum.

HAPPPPPPPY CHESSSSSSSSS DAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

never knew that! AWESOME!!!!! :)
