Grey Goose Kicks Off Chicago Beach Polo Weekend

Moshpix: Chicago got its first taste of polo Thursday in advance of this weekend's Chicago Beach Polo World Cup. Event sponsor Grey Goose sponsored a Polo 101 clinic, and even though inclement weather moved the event to the Noble Horse Theater, participants were still able to learn the ins and outs of the game from a couple of pros. After the clinic, it was on to Gallery 1028 for the Behind the Blue Door after-party. The space was tricked out in hues of blue and guests played croquet and horseshoes and mingled with polo pros. The big event goes down Oct. 1-2 on North Avenue Beach.
