I'm not thinking about bringing it back or anything like that, but......I need to know. And what's with the "Glad" in Gladiator?..... I don't see anything glad about it.....Is it just me?

    Yes, fighting to the death, I was privileged enough to fly to Las Vegas to watch IHOP vs Denny's in the octagon, it was pretty gory, there was syrup all over the canvas.

    It “Was” a sport

    I was also there when Jim Harbaugh fought wild Lions in Rome. He took his shirt off and went berserk, he just lost it, he slaughtered anything that moved!

    What did Sparticus do to the cannibal who ate his nagging wife?

    Nothing,...He's gladiator.

    Looking at this thread now, from the vantage point of knowing that DD and Hydrant are the same, makes it even better in a way.

    But I still don't know who the bots were? 🤔😂🤷

    Edited to change boys to bots, spell check my 🤬

    And that brings up another good point. DD almost never edits, but Hydrant often does. Maybe throwing us off the scent? 😂😂😂

    Again, I'm gonna have to sleep on this one. Maybe you need to spell it out phonetically. But if it makes you feel any better, I went back and gave you an Lol in your original post.

    Good night!!

    Here's an even worse one. Drug addicted cannibal standing outside a tavern, holding his stomach, turning green. Friend says "Must have been that barbitchuate."
