'Gladiators' arrested outside Rome's Colosseum

[JJJ's Ulcer]

Friends, Romans, countrymen... lend me your wallets.

"Gladiators" and "Centurions" have been roaming Rome's most famous tourist tra-- uh, spots targeting tourists and relieving them of their money. That is, until undercover cops, some also dressed as gladiators, went all ides of March on them. Yes, complete with swords drawn.

2011 seems to be the year where everyone on the planet went crazy.

There are some days when you hear a news story and just thing "this is so stupid, it has to be true." This is one of those days...

 

[steintym]

I like this story, pretty funny. The picture cracks me up for some reason.

As he was being dragged away in cuffs, I hope he yelled "ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!"

 

[Asteroid-Man]

If one of those Gladiators tried that **** on me, I'd shank em - Stile Del Gladiatore!

Guess the police finally crossed the Rubicon-artists.

God, that was terrible.
