Stand-Up Chess: Emo Philips

One of the more unusual American stand-up comedians, Emo has contributed the following to chess humour;

1. Computer Chess:

"A computer once beat me at chess, but it was no match for me at kick boxing." (attributed to Emo Philips )

2. Chess in the Park:

"I like to play chess with old men in the park. Of course the tough part about playing chess with old men in the park is finding 32 of them."      (2010 Edinburgh Fringe Festival - voted worst joke)
