Wonder if any of these players go "rage" crazy like their circus friends?

I heard recently about a sport that I didn't really believe to be true.......well I did believe it but it seemed silly to me.....it's called Elephant Polo. I've seen only one regular polo match once and it was fast and furious........this new polo (new to me) I imagined has to be slow......and boring.
Who knows? I do know that it seems to be linked with many efforts to conserve and save elephants. Do I think that the elephants would be happier in a reserve? Sure. I know they hate working in the circus....they attack every so often (not enough according to me) when they've had enough. I also don't think they are too fond of painting either. I guess painting beats the circus and the polo beats the circus........everything beats the circus!
I say we take elephants from the circus and start an American polo team. The elephants that are the stars can sign autographs during the periods using a paintbrush...........

For the person that has everything and $500 to just toss around.....
