	acrimonious? This match has nothing on the 1978
	battle between then-champion Anatoly Karpov and his
	challenger, Soviet defector Viktor Korchnoi. They
	battled over what flavors of yogurt Karpov could
	receive and when. They battled over who was
	permitted in the audience and where they could sit.
	And most of all, they battled over the chessboard,
	where Karpov emerged victorious by a 6 win to 5
	margin after 32 grueling games and a fantastic
	Korchnoi comeback....
