Recently was playing chess with a friend in Dolores Park, SF. A man who said that he had only recently gotten out of jail/prison a few months ago (he said he dealt drugs in the Tenderloin) asked for a game and beat both of us (albeit close matches).
He said he learned all of his chess in prison and was really excited to happen to find other people playing.
He also had no idea how to use a chess clock, I guess they didn't have those in prison.
