What did the ancient Romans do for fun?

What did the ancient Romans do for fun?
They had a lot of games they played. There is one that is a game much like chess and checkers combined. They had races on foot, horse and chariot. Wrestling was also big in the Roman Empire. Gambling was another thing they liked, dancing, and having parties ( they were big party people). They also had gyms that they went to as well as baths. The bath was considered recreation. In places like the Colosseum they had sea battles, races, fights with man and animals as well as man against man.When they had a bath it wasn't a normal bath like it is now, it was a bath that men and woman went into that didn't even know each other, so i guess they didn't care about there stuff
