All hail the victor!

The young son returned triumphantly from his chess tournament on Saturday. He played in several tournaments in the past and has come home from these events with what he calls “Another stupid purple ribbon.”

I was hopping that this time he would come home with his first tournament trophy. He didn’t let me down. He earned a stupid red ribbon. However, he also earned a fourth place trophy and helped his school come in third; earning the school's very first trophy.

Yea, chess nerds!
