Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: One of the most Dramatic sights in Rome is the Colosseum; but it's best seen by moonlight. The structure; on which most major sports arenas of today are patterned; was built nearly 1;900 years ago but it was bigger than anything Toronto has for sports today and had features many modern stadiums are lacking.
