in country i come from, even Starcraft players have groupies but i never heard of chess groupies??

I'm living abroad now to learn english and went to big tournament in Canada, there was only 1 player with chess title.. just the 'FM' title, not GM. Sorry but FM is no good enough so i didn't bother talk to him, i cannot imagine fangirls be impressed with FM or even IM title. . So do GMs have groupies??I think Most GMs are very attractive like Carslen, Anand, Nakamura, Kasparov, etc. Do they have women following them when they go tournaments ??

Yeah, they have to carry around plastic bags to hold all of the panties and bras that the groupies throw at them during tournaments.

Magnus has girls undressing for him http://www.worldchesschampionship2013.com/2013/11/magnus-carlsen-chess-fans-pyjama-girls.html

lol, look at the votes on that site. Only slightly more for Carlsen in 2013, and apparently less for Carlsen in 2014, although there are not many votes.

Anyway, Carlsen seems to get groupies from time to time, don't really notice it with other GMs although there could be a few others.
