Chess Slogans

I was just trying to think of a slogan using Tigers. I couldn't think of one, but it reminded me of a joke:

An inexperienced hunter asked advice from a veteran hunter regarding their tiger hunting expedition that night. 'Shoot them between the eyes young man. Right between the eyes!' Came the good advice.

The next day's paper had the following headline:

'Novice hunter mauled to death by two one-eyed tigers'

I always heard "chess players mate more often" , cute but ofcourse likely not true.  Laughing

Or how about you color a pawn in and say

"red hot pawn"

Why is it that chess has so many 'naughty' names for things?  They make interesting slogans  though... (Sorry if this is offensive to anyone)

'I have used so many mating postions that I cant remember them all'

'I play with my bishop while watching pawn'

'My favourite move is to skewer the queen'

'I had to pin the queen to the king before mating'

 'The most embarrassing thing to happen is for someone to walk into the room just as your opponent mates'

 

Is chess gay?  Chess is dominated by males players and face it - where else can you go and see lots of men in a room mating? 

'Chess - a place where it is more common to see two males mating'

 

and one final one which most people will know is true...

'Being caight mated with pawn is never good'

Keep us updated if anybody wearing the shirts gets their underwear pulled up over their head.

I second the "pawn star" or "I adjust" ideas.  Those were better than my suggestion of an unrelated product slogan like "Chess: Apply directly to the forehead!"

Chess: Food for the brain!

or

Chess: DDT for Dummies!

Haven't mastered your knight moves? Play chess.

Get your rooks off ... play chess.

(Beware, you'll meet lots of blondes with the second one: "You spelled roks wrong.")

MyCowsCanFly

A slogan for chess.com:

"Stop playing with yourself."

i saw this on a T- Shirt so its not exactly original but it is "Chess Club" then under it says "Because I'm smarter than you."

Pat_Zerr

How about a board diagram of a knight forking a king and queen, with the caption "fork you."

Chess - Waging War, Smashing Skulls, Demeaning Kings ... in a quite civilized manner

radiovent, the original poster (OP) was an original fellow.  The OP joined on nov 2007 and three days later he never logged back in again.  This one thread is his legacy. I wonder what he ended up calling the club.  Of the ones I read I like "I'd rather be mating" with a picture of a White king and a Black queen (or viceversa) to keep it diverse.  Cheers.

Still, this thread is the only recorded instance of Loomis ever resorting to humor.

I find this to be a refreshing thread.
