Where : in a street
When : after a photograph press the button.
Fischer in NYC after winning the WC.
“photograph’s” cannot press buttons, meathead.
Bad try at humor.
That was shortly after Fischer won the World Championship when Mayor Lindsay held a tribute for him in which he gave him the key to New York City. Fischer famously declared that he never thought he would see a day when Chess was all over the front pages here but not in Russia, then said ‘I guess im to blame for that.’
Nice picture. A short veideo of that same moment is also included at the beginning of the movie: Searching for Bobby Fischer.
Fischer returning back from Iceland after winninh the 1972 Worldchampionship against Spassky.
September 22 1972
After Fischer was indicted by a federal grand jury and returned to the US for trial.
During the first annual New York Anti-Semite Parade!

This was when Fischer ran for President vs Nixon in 72! ; )
Fischer at the victory rally for the New York Mets after they won the World Series in ’69.
It is a little known fact that Bobby Fischer was a rabid Mets fan.
I guess it is one of the WTC twin towers, in the background.
Two great, but also tragic landmarks on one photo.
9-11 was a conspiracy.
