Muay Thai
When you arrive, the stadium is completely unassuming in a bland concrete building. The entrance is down an alley into the back door, and opens to a room of bleachers packed tightly packed in with Thais shoulder to shoulder barely able to move.
Despite being illegal in Thailand, major gambling takes place and itself plays a big role during the fight. Bettors sometimes offer the fighters a piece of their prize if they complete their line. The intensity of this relationship propels the energy out of this tiny room.
