Polygon Events
This example attaches several mouse events to a polygon. When these events fire they highlight a label to indicate which event fired.

//Create a random polygon.
var polygon = Microsoft.Maps.TestDataGenerator.getPolygons(1, map.getBounds());
//Add the polygon to map
map.entities.push(polygon);
//Add mouse events to the polygon.
Microsoft.Maps.Events.addHandler(polygon, 'click', function () { highlight('polygonClick'); });
Microsoft.Maps.Events.addHandler(polygon, 'mousedown', function () { highlight('polygonMousedown'); });
Microsoft.Maps.Events.addHandler(polygon, 'mouseout', function () { highlight('polygonMouseout'); });
Microsoft.Maps.Events.addHandler(polygon, 'mouseover', function () { highlight('polygonMouseover'); });
Microsoft.Maps.Events.addHandler(polygon, 'mouseup', function () { highlight('polygonMouseup'); });
}
function highlight(id) {
//Highlight the mouse event div to indicate that the event has fired.
document.getElementById(id).style.background = 'LightGreen';
//Remove the highlighting after a second.
setTimeout(function () { document.getElementById(id).style.background = 'white'; }, 1000);
}

<div id="myMap" style="position:relative;width:600px;height:400px;"></div>
<div id="polygonClick">click</div>
<div id="polygonMousedown">mousedown</div>
<div id="polygonMouseout">mouseout</div>
<div id="polygonMouseover">mouseover</div>
<div id="polygonMouseup">mouseup</div>

If you run this code and hover and click the polygon you will see all these different events fire.
