Late at night, Clinton told Branch, Secret Service agents found &lt;a title="More news, photos about Yeltsin"&gt;Yeltsin&lt;/a&gt; clad only in his underwear, standing alone on Pennsylvania Avenue and trying to hail a cab. He wanted a pizza, he told them, his words slurring.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The next night, Yeltsin eluded security forces again when he climbed down back stairs to the Blair House basement. A building guard took Yeltsin for a drunken intruder until Russian and U.S. agents arrived on the scene and rescued him.&lt;/p&gt;
