Great Turnout!!!

This past Sunday we had another great day of turnout. Nathanial (sp?), Kenneth, Jon Peterson, and another guy on a Giant Mountain Bike whose name escapes me at the moment came out and played for the first time ever!!!! Unfrotunately, Nathanial is moving back to VA soon, so we are losing him. Hopefully he returns to Harrisburg stoked on polo and plays up there.

In addition to those four folks, Dave, Travis, Jeff (NOLA), Angel, Mark, Keller, Colin, Mikey (NOLA), and probably someone else obvious that I am forgetting, came out to play.

I am sidelined with a shoulder injury from a bike crash so I didn't play. Clay came by to hang out, as did Mark M., and Timarie (Mikey from NOLA's lady). Travis's parents also came by to watch for a short spell.

It was a great day of polo until......... it rained........
All the water from the interstate above came rushing down to where we were below, sending us running to move our bags and coolers to get out of the way of the nasty oil/water from the roadway above us...

Anywho, great day of polo, keep it up BR, keep the turnout coming, spread the word, and we'll see you next Sunday.

BR(p)OLO

Nice job Baton Rouge!

Sunday was another great day of polo. We had 8 folks for most of the day, still missing Deezer and Hick Assassin. So, it is looking like we can have a pretty consistent play, if all these same folks keep turning out. Dustin is coming a long way, and will be a serious threat in future games. Keller is learning more very time and its good to see him coming out consistently too.

So, keep showing up, keep playing, and we will see you this Sunday!

Pensacola

Hick Assassin and Andy Tuba went to Pensacola this past weekend. We played some awesome polo with PCola, NOLA, and Ft. Lauderdale. Thanks to Ryan E, Ryan S, and Tony for being good hosts, to AB for getting arrested and never letting the weekend get boring, to Paul, Mike, Timarie (sp...) and Jeff from NOLA, Sam and Jason from FTL, and anyone else I am forgetting.

The alley cat was great, Petunia had a great time, as did Jason (who technically finished first, just rode past a checkpoint with out checking in) and Andy who finished 6th and got largest and most outlandish prize.

GREAT TURNOUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We had a great day of polo yesterday. We had nothing but B.R. people show, and we still had 9 people! That may be the most we've ever had with only B.R. folks showing up.

In addition to our 9 players, we had Amy from 225 magazine come out and take a few shots and talk to us about polo. Mark dropped by and brought us some much needed water, and Rosanne showed up with a bowl of fresh watermelon! What a great day.....

Keller---I think you may have left your helmet. Call me 3eight6-5eight9-67eightzero.

Everyone who ate pizza....please throw me 3 or 4 bucks to help me cover that.

Possible magazine interview...

225 magazine will be doing an article on BR(p)OLO in the next few weeks. So....if you show up to play polo consistently, you might get interviewed....

shut up and play polo

Nuff said. When we say we are gonna play, show up. :-) Better turnout promotes better play promoting better polo.
