The father of the boy Charity tutors 3 days a week at the school gave us two tickets (kids are free) to the Sarasota Polo Club several weeks ago. So about two weeks ago we decided to check it out.
We weren't sure what to expect, because all either of us know about polo is what we have seen in the movies...which always seemed to be an "up-crust" snooty gathering. However, the instructions we were given with the tickets was to show up early and "tailgate" along the polo field.
When we arrived, we discovered that there was a "members" entrance and a "general admission" entrance, however, we did get to drive right up to the field and "tailgate" (though we were of course late, so we parked in the "end-zone")
It was an interesting and enjoyable time that would appeal to everyone from GiGi to Jonathan.
