Polo In Palermo, Anyone?

[dricker]

I'm in Palermo for the Argentine Open polo championship (Nov 20 - Dec 12). I'm a sportswriter and equestrian from Florida. I spend part of each year in BA (Las Canitas/Palermo). Would love to connect with expats here !

Welcome! I'm outside of the city now but we breed/train show jumpers and usually make a stop in WEF every year

Not sure if you're just polo but lots of horse stuff going on. This weekend is the Republica horse show at Club Hipico Argentino - not far from Canitas. We'll be there tomorrow for the prix. There's also a horse auction tonight.

I learned a lot of the rules of polo from sitting next to Citygirl back in ~2009 or 2010. She explained things and was patient with my questions.

Which is a lot better than water polo where most of the horses drown no?
