Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for January 15, 2025

“And that’s why I always wear Depends for Men when I’m fighting a much bigger opponent…”

These are all Greek to me!

Two Gladiators are fighting to the death…..

One of the gladiators severs both limbs from his opponent, but instead of giving up the opponent continues fighting by kicking and biting.

He then severs both legs from his opponent as well.

Finally, his opponent had no choice but to give up… as he was unarmed and defeated!

The Gladiator Pie Company established CVI.

“She promised we’d stay here this time, but she was lion.”

Domesticated cats do that, too.

Just a flesh wound

Since those “newspapers” were hand written scrolls, that were read by the scribe / town criers, it must have been difficult to do the crossword puzzle.

What proof is there that the first newspaper was started in 59 BCE? I mean,it’s not like any issues have survived all these centuries or anything…….

That paper went out of business as it was too hard to lift those clay tablets.

and funny thing about Romans, the thumbs up sign was the sign to kill, the thumbs down was the sign to spare them

It’s BC not BCE

You know who paid most of the gladiators to advertise them …

Who else?

Starbucks.

Hate to think what’s in Gladi-O’s.

Writing the date took up half the page on that newspaper.

I wonder if it had page three girls. No pudicitia‘s there.

I’m SURE the Romans were NOT the first…..
