Commenter, my misinformed friend. So you say that gladiators did not fight lions, and I don’t know my history? You did not do any research before you made your off the cuff misinformed comment, and predictably, you are wrong. The gladiators that fought animals, known as bestiarii, fought a variety of vicious mammals, including lions, leopards, bulls and panthers. My concern is, who else have you misled with your authoritarian puffery, and now obviously exposed misinformation? Who will you attempt to misinform in the future? Trust? Gone!
