Public Chess

How many of you play chess in outdoor public places?

Well there sir please do direct me to the proper place  (:

This is almost unrelated from chess.

 I usually play in basements (where chess centers are), or at my school.

For online chess, here and FIC.

I notice it being played in some citys openly and think I'll give it ago next chance I get which is another week away. Gotta walk past the guys playing every day so it is sorta a given.

I've always hated the idea of doing anything in public. Mostly out of embaresment, like Tai Chi or other Martial arts to which I have studied. Chess seems so there, yet not. I don't feel I'll be aware of the throngs of passer byers say opposed to if I where standing there in a Crane stance..

In Eindhoven , the Netherlands , people play chess with almost life size pieces   downtown on the street . A big crowd standing around to watch . I always was to shy to challenge anybody but loved to watch . I've played chess on mountaintops  on hiking trips ,  really nice .

not me

Just be sure to bump everyday, not just Sundays
