BELATED BIRTHDAY GREETINGS!
Happy birthday (August 23, 1906) to the
oldest active sportsman in the world, ICCM
Zoltan Sarosy of Toronto, still playing
correspondence chess at age 105 !
I tried this on the Only Chess forum and no one, *(well, one), paid attention.
So, try, try again.
Who's the oldest chess player here on RHP?
Grampy Bobby volunteered his age of 69, and thus is the reigning #1.
Can anyone honestly top that? There must be someone.
Let's be honest now. No confabulating. There are several trick questions us oldsters can only answer to trip up the impersonators, so ...

They can say who they are if they like.
It is not my place to do so.

Originally posted by HandyAndyI just have to believe you! Who would admit that their mother suffered through a third trimester in the summer unless it actually happened! Some women just never think ahead! (Why they can't play chess. Oooh, I'm goin' to pay for that.)
I turned 78 in August. I arrived in 1933 with King Kong, FDR and repeal.
Also my personal favorite for a b-day month! Along with Huey Long, Fred McMurray and Jon Claude Killey. Not to mention Janet Woodcock.
A new #1! HandyAndy!
Anyone care to beat it?
