Line 5:
Media set in [[Ancient Rome]] ''will'' feature [[Gladiator Games|gladiators]] or chariot racing. If it's the race, expect it to be based on the one in [[Ben-Hur]]. Expect the enemy to cheat, [[Trying to Catch Me Fighting Dirty|play rough]], [[Spiked Wheels|have illegal modifications]], etc.
In real life, people ''[[Serious Business|rioted]]'' over their favourite teams, most famously the Nika riots of 532 in Constantinople. There were two major factions, the Greens and Blues, and while your loyalty to the Emperor might shift, your loyalty to your chariot team was set for ''life''. ([[Blatant Lies|Of course, in these more enlightened times, nobody riots over sports at all or has a team that they always support.]])
