I stopped believing in the chess fairy when I was 8. Caught my dad trying to sneak a queen under my pillow.
Do you believe in the chess fairy?

I do believe in the chess fairy - I once ended up with a King under my pillow, so I thought I had a mate, but maybe I didn't cos there was noone sleeping beside me.

No telling what a tipsy chess fairy might do. Some have even found a checker king or "gasp" a queen of diamonds.

Everybody's got to belive in something I believe I'll have another beer!
cheers!
Yeah I once left a checker piece under my pillow. I woke up with a crown on my head
left a pair of 7's under my pillow and the next day I had a royal flush
Certain young chess students believe the legend of the magical chess fairy that comes each night. If you place a pawn under your pillow as you sleep, the fairy comes that night, and places a queen in its place! (hopefully, but if the fairy is in a foul mood. drunk, or just feels like playing a practical joke, you might end up with a bishop...)
