The Colosseum, the Coliseum, and the Valarium

You could be a part of the show if anything went wrong, if the emperor decided. The Valarium was operated by about a thousand sailors who would pull on the ropes because they used to pulling on ropes. They had huge, huge towers with loads of water in, and that water would kind of sprinkle over everyone's keep them cool. All the animals that came up into the stadium, they were all in the hypergium which is this extraordinary kind of like the backstage of a... of a theatre where they have just a crazy amount of stuff that you wouldn't realize to make shows happen underneath.
