I found this giant chess set at the California State Fair. I wanted to play but as you can see, another group took it over.

That chess set is so sweet. I've never seen one like that before.

I have when I was touring Europe long time ago. If I can find the picture, I will post it.

Here is the old picture I found from Europe:

It is not as big as the one in California.

Awesome. That would be fun to play a game on.

Yes, it would. However, I do not care much for the style of this particular set. Not Staunton. Bishops look like over-sized pawns.
