Named for the humorist Will Rogers, the Will Rogers State Historic Park is a landmark in Pacific Palisades. Rogers used the money he made from his writing to build a large ranch for his family. He lived there with his three kids and his wife. The state parks system later took over the operations of the estate and named it a state park. With polo tickets, you can watch the top matches and see some of the best Will Rogers State Historic Park events. You can also tour the former ranch house where Rogers once lived and hang around for the annual Kentucky Derby Viewing Party.
