Titus Flavius Vespasian also went on to have the Flavian Amphitheatre built, which we now know as the Colosseum. I guess he learned from Nero's mistakes and tried a different form of entertainment.

Is that the guy from the wire? The one that ran those legalized drug zones?

This is Captain Holt from Brooklyn 99. I never watched The Wire, but Andre Braugher (RIP) doesn't seem to have been in it.

And this is how I learn he died, he was still relatively young. Don't smoke guys, RIP.
