For a while the Roman games or the "ludi" which were not only gladiatorial combats but other forms of entertainment, were paid for politicians seeking votes. However they eventually became so expensive that only the emperor could afford to stage them. The emperor would stage the games at certain festivals and celebrations to enhance his popularity and to please the crowds with not only the entertainment, but the gifts that were customarily given out to the masses.
