Wednesday, February 4, 1998. : Microsoft founder Bill Gates is hit in the face with a custard pie


Bill Gates, chairman and chief software architect of Microsoft Corporation, is known for being one of the world's richest men. Popularity is not necessarily linked to wealth, as Gates found out when he was visiting Belgium on 4 February 1998.

Whilst in Brussels to visit European Union officials, he was entering a building to meet with Belgian government officials when he was struck in the face with what is believed to have been a custard cream pie.

The perpetrator was Noel Godin, a known Belgian prankster with a penchant for targeting the rich and famous with custard pies. Gates and the Microsoft Corporation declined to press charges.

Good play, not pressing for charges!
