You pointed out the whole "bread and circus" in the other half time Super Bowl thread, and I really liked that idea you had, I think it fits well
here too.
I do think many people watch the Super Bowl and shove tortilla chips down their throat, enjoy men beating each other up and it is nothing more than
the commoners watching a match in a roman coliseum.
You did a good job by making that connection. I do find it strange that a roman theme was used and I wonder if it was intentional or coincidence, i
wonder if they picked the roman theme just because it was cool, or if they wanted to remind us we are roman like?
one thing is for sure, it was highly ironic, and I do not think many people saw the irony!!!
