Question - 162

When and where was this picture taken? (nothing profound about the question. Just a freaky coincidence).

Answer: This is Vishy playing Kasparov atop World trade center on September 11, 1995. Arvind, an anon, Anand, Raghu, Manix, Vijay, Adi, Iam, Hirak, Rajeev, J, Divya and Keshav got it. Well done.

The PCA Championship Gary Kasparov v/s Viswanathan Anand on Sep 11 1995 at World Trade Center, NY.

Kasparov-Anand in the 1995 PCA World Championship, which I think Anand lost due to being psyched by Kasparov's fast play in the 10th game.

The coincidence: One of the matches was played on Sep 11.
