Some way into the flight, the meals are cleared away and Garry produces an elegant little wooden travel chess set. He begins to play.
After a while Kasparov asks the guy whether he would like to play chess to kill time. The guy replies, 'Hey Garry, You think I don't know who you are?. I can't compete with a world champion.'
Kasparov - 'How about if I play left handed ?
The guy thinks about this for a minute, then agrees. He is demolished in 8 moves, and is unconsollable for the rest of the journey.
On landing he meets his friend, who asks him how the flight was. 'It was terrible,' he says. 'Completely humiliating. I played chess with Garry Kasparov and he beat me in spite of him playing left-handed!'
His friend replies - 'Ha! You were swindled! Dude, Garry Kasparov is left-handed!!'
