[Villages Kahuna]

...First, they are very inexpensive to attend...$3 per person.

Then you can drive your golf cart right up behind the hedges lining each side of the field and watch the game from there. There are also trees along each side and the golf cart parking spots in the shade of the trees fill up first.

Or, you can park your cart or car and find a seat in the grandstand. There, the Villages polo Club generally has a member do a little "Polo For Dummies" presentation before each game, explaining the rules, telling about the horses, players, etc. The seats are comfortable and they also have 2-for-1 drinks, inexpensive food, and all the comforts of home. When two games are played, the "grandstand people" simply move from one side of the grandstand to the other to replicate their seats for the second game on the other side. Not that it's a big deal, but the "golf cart people" have to drive from one field to the other to watch the second game.

There is almost always someone or groups doing a tailgate party. There are even some reserved spots for groups using carts along the sides of the field in the prime locations, although I don't know how one goes about making group reservations. Almost all the spectators arriving in carts bring something to drink or eat.

One thing I can say for sure...there are lots worse ways to spend a beautiful day in The Villages than parking next to the Polo Field and watching the beauty and power of the horses and riders. There are lots of reasons they refer to equine sports as "the sport of kings". And living here in TV, we can be kings (and queens) ourselves!
