      WHAT?! Polo is much much older than soccer. It dates back to ancient Persia (about 2000 years ago). I say soccer was inspired by polo not the reverse.

    A cowboy buys a horse from the town pastor. The pastor explains, “To make the horse go, you gotta yell, ‘Thank God!’ And to make it stop, yell, ‘Hallelujah.’”
    The cowboy rides away. He rides all day and starts to nod off in the saddle when he notices he is about to ride straight over a cliff. Searching his memory, he yells to the horse, “Hallelujah! Hallelujah!” The horse grinds to a stop just at the edge of the cliff. The cowboy wipes the sweat off his forehead.
    “Phew!” the cowboy sighs. “Thank God!”

    They ride aggressively, fast, with such determination and courage, just like warriors used to ride centuries ago. This game was originally called chovgan, a military tactics game played in Asia to train cavalry units of Iranian and Turkic warrior peoples. No coincidence that it was British military officers who were impressed with it, renamed it polo and spread it throughout the world.

    Riding is all about the ultimate spiritual experience - It’s the separation of your consciousness (or soul, as some would call it) from your physical body. Yes, it's that cool. In fact, there are theories that claim you're already astral projecting when you sleep. Most of us just lose recollection of it when we awake. So the riding is being able to do this while being "conscious" of it. Rissala Polo Club.

    What a beautiful game for the horses. Horses these days, at least in the first world, don't have fun lifes. They are usually owned by little girls who want to ride, they are in high stress tournament situations and have to listen to a lot of commands and 99% of their time they spent in their box eating and sleeping.
    But in Polo they still have to follow some rules, but they get to be social with other horses and run around and use their energy.

    Its not a rich man sport in its homeland! Its a military sport. Both women and men could play.
    Take note Britannia ,you gonna add this to your newer propaganda movies "this game was played mostly by emperor's knights in Persia, this is why the knights of persia were the best all the way to late medival era. So it was called sport of kings cus kings guards "shahswaran" battled eachother on a blood dry battle ground "
    Few years later british gonna make movies about medival knights playing chogān and get goosebumps about their fake man made identity.

      By “google,” a pony is anywhere between $5,000-$15,000.
      A thoroughbred is $200,000+.

It was further developed and formalised in ancient Iran (Persia) as "chovgan" (čowgān), becoming a national sport played extensively by the nobility. Women played as well as men. It was also a training game for cavalry units, usually the royal guard or other elite troops. The Turks later brought the game to India in the 15th and 16th centuries.

    That horses legs at about 50 seconds before dude takes a swing are amazing. I have to know if the horse did it on his own or if the rider cued for that. As much as I hate polo because I don't like high speed hard objects near horse legs, that was amazing and worthy of the epic music.
