Default O/T: Bobby Fischer RIP

Posted By: Patrick McMenemy

My twin brother, Mike, was taught chess by his 6th grade teacher, Ms. McCoy. He in turn taught my dad, and my dad taught me how to play. Each evening the board would be set up in the dining room, and we would have the Red Sox on the radio in the background. Some of my best memories growing up were the chess games between my dad and my brother. We started playing chess around 1970, so we knew quite a bit about Bobby Fischer, and we followed his match closely.
