Heh, this thread reminded me of something. When I was like 9 or 10 years old, I saw these two IM's agreeing to a draw in an opposite color bishop endgame were they both had like 5 or 6 pawns each. I couldn't figure out why on earth would they do that, it seemed to me that you can play that position forever.. And so a couple months later I was playing a game in U-10 championship of my country. We arrive at a very very similar opposite color bishop endgame with tons of pawns. My opponent, who was considered a stronger player than me, offered me a draw immediately. As I was kind of a "revolutionary guy" at that point, not agreeing to anything I see and stuff, I had this idea in mind that I should prove that those masters were incorrect to agree to a draw and that it is possible to win this position. Soo.. We played for like one and a half hours more (longest game of that tourney!), just pretty much pushing those bishops around.. But I felt I can make him falter! And as a matter of fact he did. I am not sure how, but he managed to blunder his two pawns on the queenside, so we ended up with such pawn structures. White: h2, g3, f4, e5, a3, b4. Black: h3, g4, f5, e6. Kings were standing in an opposition in the center and bishops were roaming around. I realized, that I will need my king in order to promote my pawns, because his light square bishop was blocking it.. After I moved my king, he went with his king all the way to g2, took my h2 pawn, and promoted. I lost a game and a championship..
