the second act of some versions of the musical Chess are based on the bitterly contested world championship matches between Karpov and Korchnoi, which among many other crazy things, almost had the stateless Korchnoi be represented by a Jolly Roger flag next to the chessboard.
while disappointing for the memes that this didn't happen, the fictional next best thing can be made to happen in set dressing for the musical, a pirate flag for Anatoly Sergievsky.
