This was my only bad experience in Italy... Be very careful of the Gladiators around the Roman Coliseum.. They will ask you if you would like your picture taken ,with your camera for a tip... They take around 5 pictures with your camera.. When you hand them a tip of 3 Euros . They get really angry. They Then demand you give them 10 Euros for their time.. "A tip is a tip and is whatever I wish to give".. I yelled back .. "are you crazy?" They still insisted I give them 10 euros. That I was cheating them... My wife then walked away and I yelled "You said a tip and give me my 3 Euros back you crooks". They refused and I then walked away.. They still insisted I owed them 10 Euros... They then saw a Policeman walking nearby and they shut up and went back to trying to hustle a new person.. Here is their faces.. BE WARNED..
