A few weeks ago, Ben saw that there was a polo match in Newport, RI for only $10 per person. Basically, bring your own food/drinks and have a good time.

Since the match didn't start until later in the evening, we hung out on the cliff walk and at the beach for a little bit. After staring at some mansions that were about the size of my home town, it was time to go watch the horses.

Since none of us had ever been to a polo match before, we really didn't know what to expect ... besides what we've all seen from Pretty Woman, of course. We knew coming in that there would be some high class people (those drinking the pink champagne on ice) as well as those coming to mock it (kind of like we did for Harvard v. Yale a few years back). We decided to play it up somewhere in the middle.

Bringing a card table and chairs turned out to be a great idea, as well as having some sandwiches and adult beverages on ice. We probably spent more time socializing than actually watching the match (which Kenya won), but the experience was amazing and we'll definitely be back.
