You launch spittle all over the glass separating you and Jolene. "Gwa- WHAT?! TWO LOUSY COINS! THAT'S A RIPOFF! WHY IS EVERYTHING SO EXPENSIVE IN GLITZVILLE?"
You can hear what must be the loudest Crowd you've heard in years, just beyond the doors that keep flapping open and closed to let people in and out, smiles dotting their faces.
You grumble and kick rocks, but remember you can exchange your Supernova Speck here for 100 Coins.
Still not paying to watch the fight, or for the TURBO Slugger, heh heh heh. You know a rotten deal when you see one!
Wait, are those complimentary Glitz Pit memorabilia ponchos and foam fingers!!? Everyone's wearing one! Dammit!
You sourly leave the large coliseum and see screens in every shop and corner in Glitzville broadcasting the fights via live-feed, but you still kinda wish you got to experience a fight from the Crowd. Oh well, you'll get to see what it's like on-stage!
Grubba himself is announcing the matches. You can see and hear him hyping up The Hand-It-Overs. "...AAAAAND IN THIS CORNER! THE DOWN-RIGHT DASTARDLY NE'ER-DO-WELLS!! WATCH YOUR PURSES, LADIES, HAHA! But seriously, I've had to admonish them before about that... So let's just... Nip it in the bud, okay? ...IT'S THE HAND! IT! OVERRRRRRS!!!!!"
The Crowd positively erupts over this amateur-ranked match. "AND REMEMBER FOLKS, IF YOU THINK YOU GOT WHAT IT TAKES TO JUMP IN THE RING WITH STUDS LIKE US, COME ON DOWN AND JOIN, BEEFY STRANGERS!! SIGN UPS END IN 30 MINUTES! BE QUICK! NOW ON! WITH! THE! FIIIIIGHT!" A huge bell ding sounds over Glitzville. You watch one of the Bandits Swindle one of the Punk Rocks.
Can you win the adoration of the fans, the tournament itself, and most importantly that rare Badge? One loss and you're out! One thing's for sure, this isn't a task for an empty stomach!! Har har!
You send Kammy and Troopa Jr. to distract the proprietor of the restaurant, Mr. Hoggle. He thinks Kammy is TJ's grandma, apparently. "Wreeee I tell you what, missus, yer lil' guy here looks like he would taste so good scrambled up on top of a Hot Dog! No, seriously, I wanna try!" Then he makes some odd honking or squealing noises.
Troopa Jr. lets out a scared meep.
Gotta be sneaky, this guy's a weirdo, and he wields a butcher's knife. Your Insatiable Hungriness tiptoes behind the food truck labelled Hot Dogs - 12+ Coins! (If you roll a 15 or above, you steal two TURBO Sluggers and get away with it! Otherwise Mr. Hoggle will catch you!)
