SaemPlease be relevant, helpful & nice!
Saemich beats Capablanca with the great master making a seemingly obvious mistake. As it turns out, Capa's girlfriend was seating nearby when his wife showed up unexpectedly. He moved quickly, then greeted his wife but hung a piece.
I only understood the last joke, but it was quite funny too. ;)
When I was like 8 and playing in a childrens tournament a game next to me went: 1 e4 e5 2 Qh5 and at that point the kid playing White asked his opponent: ''Does your king also have a sticker on the bottom?'' So the unsuspecting opponent grabbed his king and looked. ''No.'' ''You now touched the king, thus you must move it!'' the kid screamed triumphantly. The other kid was in shock and soon the arbiter was called to the scene. The arbiter laughed at the situation and let the game continue without having the kid playing Black having to move his king.
Moral of the story: Apparently only White kings have a sticker.

This is called the Two Children's Trap
This story happened at the Spain vs USA on the 13th Chess Olympiad, Munich 1958. On third board were playing Toran and Bisguier. When the American master resigned, Toran said with a smile, "I am so happy, it is the best present for my birthday!" The opponent replied, "It's all right, today happens to be my birthday too"

Many years ago, US champion of that day GM Larry Evans, was playing a simul in the Mental institution in New York. He made pretty good result but some tall guy was playing absolutely brilliant and has demolished the Grandmaster. At the parting Larry congratulated to the winner once again and this one said: "Mister Evans. For one it's not indispensable to be crazy so he could play good, but it really helps alot

GM Svetozar Gligoric in an interview:"...I also experienced an interesting case of concentration. It happened while I was playing in England. I got up from my board and noticed my wife. I realized that her face was familiar and I said 'Good afternoon!'. She ran away..."

A chess player went to buy a chess book from a shop. He picked it up, went to the counter and asked, "Excuse me, how much does the book cost?" The lady at the counter replied, "This one is $150." The chess player left the book carefully on the counter, said "J'adoube" and quickly went out of the shop.
