The WEHO team is very sexy as evidenced by the new 'Men of WEHO POLO' 18 month pin-up calendar.(picture attached).
You can meet the West Hollywood Water Polo team this Friday (7/21) at Crew Bar and Grill for their calendar release party. And we are told they will be in their speedos. Maybe an encore performance!?!
