Thumbs up Polo fun to watch

My husband and I went 2 years ago to our first game. We fell in love with the game right off the bat. Joined the Polo Booster Club. Have been able to meet the players because of that group, have parties, and more.

For tickets you can buy them at the gate, or at the Box Office. If you are going to the Opener I suggest that you get them at the Box Office ahead of time, we do. There are two matches per game day. The first is always at 1pm. The junior players do that match. Then at 3pm is always the advanced players game. If you go to the 1pm match all you need to do to go to the 3pm match is pick up your 'stuff' and move over to the other side of the Polo Stadium. So you get 2 matches for a very reasonable cost.

We went to the Polo Brunch before the 1pm game last season for the first time. Highly reccomend it. Plan on going again when my Mother-in-law visits in October (want to impress her).

I'm orginally from MN so I look at Polo as hockey with horses. If you understand hockey then you can understand Polo.

SEE YOU THERE!!!
