Message: [QUOTE="ClifSpliffy, post: 4310172, member: 9260"] i've 'played' a chukker or three of gentle, non-contact (yeah, sure. another lie) polo. at that last one, i realized that i'll die someday, but it ain't gonna be today or ever doing this. im out, cuz i don't belong in this 'sport.' no way -too scary. there was a Secretary of sumthin for Reagan from Connecticut, whom i believe died getting crushed by his horse. yeah, um no. count me out. they say that u need six fleabags for the original, open field match. i've seen some of those 'aficionados' bring ten or more to a match, as i stand there with my jaw dropped, figgering out the bucks to haul them from Florida or Kentucky, or upstate New York, or wherever. wow. we didn't play polo growing up in Bport, but we did have the merry-go-round at Beardsley, and over at Rye Playland. more to my liking. way more. my steed always won, or so i thought.
