Bill Gates loses virtual soccer match to Mexican pro during trip to sign tech accords
Tagged: Mexico, MicrosoftPosted on: March 21st, 2007“Microsoft Corp. Chairman Bill Gates met his technological match Tuesday, losing a video game simulation of a penalty shootout to star Mexican soccer player Rafael Marquez 2-1 as hundreds of Microsoft Mexico employees and other invited guests cheered on the two.
“I wouldnt bet all of my money on it,” the richest man in the world quipped when Marquez asked him if he really dared take on the challenge before they hunkered down in two opposing chairs and launched a live competition displayed on three giant screens hung above a large stage.”
