Gladiator Fights And Moder Day Distractions

In the roman times thousands of people would go to the circus to watch the gladiators fight. Gladiators fought tigers and other men’s. The way the fights would end was either thumbs up or thumbs down. Thumbs up meant to let them live and thumbs down was to kill them. The crowd usually played the roles of these life-and-death decisions. They called this entertainment; these people went to watch them fight for free. In today’s modern day circus are stilled used for entertainment but things aren’t as bad as before, even though things haven’t changed a bit because when someone is watching a fight they’re always anxious to know what’s going to happen. Most of the times these types of entertainment are found in newspapers and in TV that way it look more interesting. Everything is practically the same just that back then it was gladiators fight and now is the same just called wrestling, boxing, kick-boxing, and much more. Another name could be like “violent entertainments”.
