You are greeted in the lobby by a pink Toad woman in professional attire. She asks you "2 adults and 1 juvenile? That'll be 2 Coins. Right now it's amateur league, winner moves up to the pros. The Punk Rocks vs. the Hand-It-Overs. Betting is still open. You in?"
"Uhh, actually, we're here looking for your boss, Grubba."
Jolene, as her name tag suggests, replies "Mr. Grubba is busy, he won't come out of his office until tonight's events are over. So what are ya in for?"
>Join the Crowd and merely watch the fight for 2 coins.
>Bet on the Hand-It-Overs to win.
>Bet on the Punk Rocks to win.
>Wait for the fight to end, save your coins for travel fare. Maybe you can head back outside and steal a TURBO Slugger while you wait.
The winners are gifted a nice purse in front of the crazed Crowd, broadcasted all over screens in Glitzville, even outside the Glitz Pit. This arena stuff doesn't look so bad, you think, you could rack up some riches before getting down the road, or you could just continue without the prizefighting. After you finish watching the fight, the announcer comes out and tells all of Glitzville, via live-feed screens, "If YOU think you can take on tonight's winners and 2 other teams, you could be Glitzville's newest Champ! 1st place prize is a fabulously rare Badge! All other placings will receive prizes appropriate to their standing." The announcement shuts off.
You return to Jolene and announce to her:
>This fighting is all fake! Give me my money back, now! The entire Crowd is full of dummies!
>You people have some gall trying to get peoples' children to watch this. This is sick, and what do you think it does to society at large when you perpetrate these televised violent events?
>Sign me up, Jolene, I'll clobber your whole roster, and become everybody's favorite fighter in no time! Just prepare the prize for me!
