Around 1988 , I had dinner in Buffalo , NY with the then USSR " Commissar of Sports and Culture " and his Interpreter also from the USSR . [ Long story how it came to be ] .
About 10 days later an FBI Agent appeared at my office door . He had black and white glossy photos of me having dinner with these two guys .
Turned out the " Interpreter " was actually a very senior KGB Officer . The FBI could not figure out how the KGB guy got into the US . I related to the FBI Agent that the Commissar told me that the two had been " college buddies " and he brought his friend along to give him a vacation from his family !
