Visiting the Colosseo

After visiting the Forum, it was time to check out the Colosseo (Colosseum).  There wasn't nearly as much walking as in the Forum.  The Colosseum would hold between 50,000 to 70,000 people for their entertainment. It had a wooden floor with sand/dirt on top of the floor. (Sounds like what we do for a Rodeo.) I wonder who was the copycat?
