barrybankruad Posted June 15, 2013 Author Share Posted June 15, 2013 Don't think the actual elephant polo is weird, it's the contrasting human teams that are weird. All Blacks and Ladyboys??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boosta Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I've gone to this several times over the past decade, lots of fun especially if you can bring some kids. Pretty rich fellows, the "league" has matches in Sri Lanka other countries where elephants are part of the culture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadman Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Some of the Tiffany 'gals' are quite cute. The AB's are about to kick off the second test against the Frogs. Serious <deleted> and none of this ladyboy stuff. Although the Frogs do have a lot in common with Belle, Pop, Jele and the girls in that they like to play the balls.

All Blacks and Ladyboys??? - I think a colonial remnant, at this point almost taking the piss, playing the eccentric wealthy farang just to show you can.
