Roses are red, that much is true, but violets are purple, not fucking blue.

Dumb Headcanon of the Day:

After the War of the Ring, the people of Rohan invented polo.

HEAR ME OUT:

Tolkien is very clear that Hobbits invented golf.

Merry is a Hobbit. He went to Rohan and taught them how to play golf.

The people of Rohan went, “Well, this is fun, but wouldn’t it be even better if we did it on HORSES?”

So they modified the sport slightly to have mallets instead of clubs and a goal instead of holes (because horses can step in golf holes and that would be bad).

TL;DR: Rohan invented polo and we have Merry to thank for it.
