Mickey Mouse Polo
Leslie Howard had a love of horses. He once said that "one does not want many friends. But horses..." And for friends? He liked people who liked horses. He loved to ride and he loved to play polo. He considered polo, "unlike acting, really living." Howard was a member of The Riviera Club and his polo team was captained by none other than his friend, Walt Disney. They were the Mickey Mouse Polo Team. Honestly. The team included Will Rogers and his son, Will, Jr., Howard's good friend, Robert Montgomery, and a couple of other players.
