Postcard from Italy - "Colossal" Will Bromberg


Will Bromberg reports "This was definitely my favorite place we visited while in Rome. During the Roman Empire, this ancient, elliptical amphitheatre served as the battleground of many gladiatorial contests and games. Admission was free to the public, and the unemployed occupied many of the 50,000 seats. This was brilliant because instead of causing trouble, these citizens were entertained daily."

The 2,000-year-old colosseum will be renovated over the next several months to the tune of 30 million euro, and will recruit at least one corporate sponsor who will be able to license the colosseum's image in its own products or services.
