Getting good seats at the Colosseum

Imperial Rome had about a million inhabitants. The Colosseum had only 50,000 or so seats. During the games, your chances of getting a good seat depended on who you were, who you knew, and how creatively you exploited both.

@@thetrickster9885 I think people probably did have "bad eyes" in the ancient world, before corrective lenses became more common in the later medieval era. Then again not a lot of people were in professions that deeded distance - if you're a peasant/serf/slave working in a field or down a mine, or were in a household doing close-range things it probably never came up or was only sometimes remarked on - even blind slaves were kept on if they could do something. I think it was a problem for warriors and later professional soldiers who'd need to be able to see enemies coming, or for monarchs at large gatherings or on battlefields. Can't have the archers shoot your king by mistake...

@@Replicaate Yes you give some good points, also I think that people would have been myopic anyway because of old age. But only few Lucky people aged over 50 in those times.

That’s not the only way Roman morality was extremely strange. The Roman senator Symmachus was annoyed that his 29 captured Saxon slaves, who were going to be used as gladiators, committed suicide. *In 393 the Roman aristocrat Symmachus brought a group of Saxon prisoners to Rome, intending that they publicly slaughter each other in gladiatorial games held to honour his son. However, before they were exhibited, twenty-nine of them committed suicide by the only means available to them - by strangling each other with their bare hands. For us, their terrible death represents a courageous act of defiance. But Symmachus viewed their suicide as the action of a 'group of men viler than Spartacus', which had been sent to test him. With the self-satisfaction of which only Roman aristocrats were capable, he compared his own philosophical response to the event to the calm of Socrates when faced with adversity.*

Oooh! I absolutely loved this. Watched it several times too. I had the marvellous experience of attending several shows in the ancient Greek Odeon of Herodes Atticus in Athens. Although not comparable in size or purpose, it certainly provided a strong, unique and unforgettable vibe. Had the best marble seats too, no slaves in attendance this time.
