There's nothing like playing chess in NYC's Central Park or Bryant Park, when ya come here don't forget to stop at these parks and play for fun, $ or pride.

I have never been to NYC, but if I ever make there I do want to go to those places and play some chess.  I enjoy playing strangers OTB and not having a clue as their abilities.  No doubt they would beat me royally, but it would be enjoyable to watch how they do it.
