It’s often thought the gladiator games were Rome’s most popular - and while those certainly were wildly in demand - the ancient Romans favorite sport was the Chariot Races.

In this video we will take a look at what the spectacle would have looked like in the largest stadium in the ancient world - and still to this day the largest stadium ever built - the Circus Maximus.

Come explore a day at races that were wild, raucous, dangerous, and a gambler’s paradise. A day in which you realize aren’t that much different than our football Saturdays in the fall.
