Philly Stakes: Unlikely Champions

[demmiblue]

Kareem Rosser was at the bottom, literally and figuratively. He was living in the West Philadelphia neighborhood called just that, "The Bottom", a place where shootings, beatings and drug deals are a part of everyday life. He had little hope of getting out until he stumbled upon the unlikeliest of sports -- polo, a game associated with the wealthy and elite, and commonly known as the "sport of kings". E:60's Lisa Salters follows Kareem's unusual and surprising journey, from learning to play polo in inner-city Philadelphia, to winning a national championship and creating a life that he never thought could be his.
