The Lamborghini Polo Classic is coming to Westworld on April 20, 2008. The Lamborghini Polo Classic will feature an afternoon full of competition. There is a Battle of the Chefs luncheon, a Battle of the Sexes Polo Game, hot air balloons, sixty plus Lamborghini automobiles, half-time money run and much more.
The festivities begin at 11:00 AM with tether balloon rides for the attendees, followed by the Battle of the Chefs. Three Chefs will take the stage and each prepare either a steak, chicken or fish dish. The Chefs will make each demonstration a show with music and their entourage. After each demonstration everyone will be served that entree. At the end of the competition each table will vote for their favorite Chef. Each Chef is represented by either a red, white or blue balloon at each table. Attendees will pop the two Chef balloons that they do not want to win. The Chef with the most balloons flying will win.

The Lamborghini of Scottsdale Men’s polo team will go head to head with the U.S. Trust Bank of America Private Wealth Management Women’s polo team. This is a strip polo format with the horses being stripped after the game.
The Half-time money run will feature Four hundred bags with $1 and one bag with $100 will be dropped onto the field and guests will be held to the side until the horn blows. And then it is like the land rush of the 1800\'s as everyone scrambles to get a bag.
