If I had a nickel for every time some shithead tourist carved a name into an ancient site, I'd have like three nickels, which isn't a lot but it's infuriating it's happened three times.

In the interests of prevention, should there be heightened security? It's a shame there's probably little funding for it.

As penance for their crime, they must battle IN the Colosseum! A fight with gladiators, and lions, and various monsters of Greek mythology which are just two or three different animals smashed together! If they can survive the cattle man and the chicken lizard and whatever the heck a manticore is, they will be set free and given a ticket to New Zealand, where all shows set in Greece are filmed.

This is a shitshow. Colloseum is being eroded by environmental effects day by day. You know hat the correct answer is? Maintainence. Its solves the issue of tuourists being morons too

I genuinely and unironically think vandalism like this should be grounds for cancellation of your passport for a while in addition to all other penalties (say, for 5 years). If you can't play nice, you're grounded and you don't get to visit other countries until you grow up.

That seems like a low price to pay to have your name immortalized in a monument.

Do idiot things, win idiot prizes.

I swear, too many folks go on vacation and leave their brains at home.

thats all. seems low. is it just the cost to repair?

Che cazzo

That is disgusting and there should be a bigger fine. Some people did this to an Aboriginal rock painting in Australia and it made me so angry to think of the disrespect they display.
