      Chess Joke by Chess Daddy

      Chess Joke


      This is a chess joke that was sent in by Chess Daddy:

      Two elderly men are playing blitz at a sidewalk cafe. The first man has a winning position, but is rather short on time. Just as he’s about to finish off his opponent, a funeral procession comes down the street. The man stands up, removes his hat, and waits till the funeral procession goes past, but of course his clock runs down and he loses the game. His opponent says to him, “That was a very honorable thing for you to do.” The man replied, “Oh, it was the least I could do after 47 years being married to her.”

        me too, do not see the fun of this “chess” joke – but you should know: my wife left me some years ago – not least, because of my “very time consuming passion” – you have one guess what she meant with “very time consuming passion” …

        ^^

        Come on people….lighten up. Do we need to censor jokes now because they remind you of your ex-partners?

        I have been divorced twice, but I’m not crying about it.

        He had to finish his opponent.
        One winning position deserves more attention to the funeral of your wife!

        reminds me of a baseball joke:

        An old man has come to watch a baseball game, but the seat next to him is empty. An attendant asks, “You`re sitting there so alone.. Was your wife not able to come?” The man says, “My wife is dead.” The attendant says, “I`m so sorry to hear that. But don`t you have any other family members or friends who could come with you?” The man says, “No, they are all at the funeral.”
