Schizos, did you know that Gary Kasparov and Anand Viswanathan played a 21 game chess match (picrel) in the 90s?

The match began on September 11 (!), 1995 at the World Trade Center (!). It is unusual for a match at this level to have very bold and risky plays, yet somehow, Gary and Anand *both* sacrificed rooks during the course of this match. Stranger still, that there were THREE (!) rook sacrifices in a row, and they took place in games 9, 10, and 11.
In chess, a rook is often referred to as a TOWER (!).
