      Oh don’t you worry - vendors were very much a thing in the Colosseum! I’m sure they were every bit as overpriced as they are now, lmao.

    Just feel like I’d be tripping all over the place with those robes. I think it’s a good think I was born in the AP (after pants) era.

      Funny enough, the Romans themselves didn’t care too much for the toga. It was hot, heavy, and unwieldy. But it was like a suit - it was what you were SUPPOSED to wear on proper occasions.

        They would have looked pretty silly lined up at the urinals with those things at the Colosseum.

      Senators definitely did, I don’t believe ordinary people would have. Though I could be wrong, I can’t remember much on the details of Colosseum seating beyond division by social status.
