You cut out of line and begin trying to find an acceptable set of clothes. A shop for small men comes into view as you round the corner. You enter the shop and purchase a wig and a man's toga. You change into the clothes and go back to the stadium.
As you enter the stadium, you realize the wig makes you stick out a little bit, but you hope no one will notice you. You hold your breath and walk past the entrance. No one stops you and you let out a sigh as you enter the large building. The stands are filled with 40,000 people anxiously awaiting the Games. Athletes on the floor of the stadium are getting ready to compete.
You start to look for the right person for your sister. All the athletes look O.K., but three catch your eye. The first one was a runner from Sparta. The second was a boxer from northern Greece. The third was a competitor in the pancratium. They all looked strong and seemed to come from wealthy families because they were surrounded by servants.
You decide to go down to the field and try to convince one of the competitors to marry your sister, but you don't know which to choose. The runner seemed healthy and was surrounded by many servants. The boxer was decked in gold and being waited upon hand and foot. The third man was the strongest of the group and seemed to be the most well known, because the other athletes treated him as royalty. You know you only have one chance, because you're leaving as soon as the competition is done.
