I don’t know what tournament it was, but there was a video circulating brazillian social media circles, of a chess tournament with a brazillian player and a group of brazillians cheering like it was a soccer game, with flags and everything, and everyone else was sitting like 😑, while the brazillian guys were 🥳🥳

A pre-match interview where they both trash talk each other would definitely improve the excitement of a chess match.
