Spettacoli di sangue, circo e bel canto, Gladiatori, belve, martiri cristiani, eretici, meretrici, cavalieri, artisti: in Arena nel tempo si sono alternati spettacoli, trionfi, vizi, sangue e morte. In epoca romana si combatteva, e alcune iscrizioni funebri ricordano le vittime: il reziario Generoso che morì nel suo letto, ritiratosi superstite dopo ventisette scontri, il secutore Edone morto a ventisei anni dopo otto combattimenti, il ventitreenne Gauco, che fu seppellito nella necropoli periferica di San Zeno, ricordato con amore dalla moglie Aurelia e con onore dai tifosi. In città è stata peraltro verificata l'esistenza di una caserma gladiatoria, grazie ad un'iscrizione conservata nel Museo lapidario Maffeiano, il più antico del genere in Europa. Probabilmente, ma non è accertato, vi furono martirizzati cristiani, forse anche i santi Fermo e Rustico nel 304, nella stessa occasione in cui il vescovo Procolo chiese la medesima sorte, ma fu invece deriso e allontanato, perché vecchio. In epoca medioevale si organizzarono delle lotte giudiziarie, sistema diretto di risoluzione delle controversie legali incerte. Le parti in causa potevano farsi rappresentare da lottatori professionisti, detti campioni, che si fronteggiavano sotto gli occhi del popolo.
