If you saw a real gladiator game, like for some reason it was on TV or you went back in Time or something. Would you watch it? Be Honest. Its 2 or more people fighting with swords and spears and stuff, and a good chance somebody will die or get seriously hurt.

Would it entertain you?

We can do that with technology without people getting hurt using special effects, so, no. Because there would be no fucking point.

I probably would watch it cause it'd look fucking awesome looking at two dudes fighting two the death in a trap filled stadium. Although I'd probably get sick watching someone get killed.

Why is this relevant?

I have a pink miniature unicorn in my left testicle. Prove me wrong.

I would only watch if it were a true gladiator match. No armor, just flesh clashing with hot, sweaty flesh. Swords and flails only.

Yeah, I would. It would be like the wrestling/UFC of the medieval times, so most people in that time wouldn't consider it bad anyways.

Only if I got caught in a sticky situation where I would be offered a front row ticket to the Arena, and refusing would give away my character and reveal myself as a time traveling man from the future.

I had only to wish that there be a large crowd of spectators the day of my execution and that they would greet me with cries of hate.

I'd probably watch some of it. I might be entertained till one of them died. At which stage I might well be sick - or maybe not.

You mean ROMAN times. Even a little 8-year old knows they didn't have Gladiators in the Middle ages. Although, they had jousting but that's pretty safe unless your not lucky.

If your reading this, then why do you care?

Yeah, your right. Sorry. I do know my history, but I was doing math homework as I was posting that, so my mind was off track.

Learn from my mistake. Roman times, people.

Yes, yes it is. It's like a football or baseball game.

I would probably not be entertained by it, but there is a chance I could be.

I suppose I would. It isn't everyday you get to see such an important part of a society's culture. Especially when the society has been gone for over 1500 years.

I am a new terror born in death, a new superstition entering the unassailable fortress of forever. I am legend.

You mean ROMAN times.

Don't be a dick clock.

I think this topic is relevant due to the fact that we are at different levels and different weapons are displayed for them.

I would watch it because human death can neeeeever be recreated.

They had more than just jousting silly boy. They may not have been called gladiators but they did have two dudes in a pit fighting with swords and a variety of other weapons.
