(1260) ROUND 2 OF THE 2016 WORLD CHESS OLYMPIAD IN BAKU, AZERBAIJAN

THE VENUE -- CRYSTAL HALL (Baku, Azerbaijan)
      When Roberto Hernandez was in 2012 Istanbul, Turkey World Chess Olympiad, he noticed a sign "2016 Baku Chess Olympiad". He thought that Baku has won already the bid to host the 2016 Olympiad. But where is Baku? He asked a lady at the booth and she said Azerbaijan and gave Roberto a gift. He said to her, "I'll tell our Delegate Jan Berglund to vote for Baku."
