"Where do they get corn syrup"

i mean surely they just looked up the popualtion right idgi

No. A true R*dditor is a wehraboo, but since that’s kind of frown upon they restort to be Romeaboos and so they must know that kind of useless trivia data.

this just seems like “making up a guy to get mad at”

like the question seems dumb to me cause obviously they walked but i dont really feel like this is interesting to dunk on idk

Amazing :amerikkka-clap:

Ngl this does make me kind of curious about ancient world event logistics

I think most spectators walked

Well yeah I figured, I meant bigger picture. How far did people often travel from? How many people attended? Were there some events that brought much larger crowds than others? What were food options like in the area? Lodging? Garbage disposal?

yeah there was food, and garbage disposal would be about the same as today: some guy pushes his cart and picks it up, moves it too a bigger cart.

iirc garbage went with sewage waste & in fountain channels. they didn’t have all that much to dispose of that wasn’t biodegrable

they had street food & taverns/brothels where people could sleep

There are some spectators haunting europe…

Yeah as a guy who knows nothing about that world, the question in OP is interesting to me.

Unless you were a farmer, merchant, or noble, you most likely walked everywhere your entire life.

Return to tradition, put all men in dresses

Dunno how universal this is, but the Colosseum/Flavian Amphitheater had a massive underground section where supplies would be stockpiled for the games. The underground section is exposed to the open air today, so if you visit you can see it from above. As for getting the supplies down there, teamsters and dock workers have been among the largest urban professions since the dawn of civilization, so the answer is a lot of overworked slaves and proletarii.

This is true. I saw a teamster the other day and I was in awe at the size of this lad.

They must go to the tallness gym a lot.

There’s a video from the channel told in stone on youtube that talks about it. It’s pretty interesting.

It’s a little-known fact that corn syrup comes from corn buttholes.
