José Pablo Eustaquio Manuel Francisco de Escandón y Barrón (May 4, 1856 in Mexico City – March 31, 1929 in Mexico City)[1][2] was a Mexican polo player in the 1900 Summer Olympics.[3]
Despite losing their only game against the BLO Polo Club Rugby, they were tied with the Bagatelle Polo Club de Paris, and as thens rules didn't stipulate a third place playoff, they were both awarded the third place, however, their bronze medal was not recognized until time later, as back then, the winners received a silver medal instead of the actual gold and it was the second place the one that received bronze, but when current rules were established, previous results were updated and the medals were officially awarded.[1]
