If you mean the Roman people, they responded passionately to Chariot Racing. It was their national sport and charioteers were some of the highest paid athletes in the ancient world. Inscriptions and even monuments were put up to honor them and even their horses. Riots and fights sometimes broke out between rival factions or fans. There is even a story of a fan throwing himself on the funeral pyre of a charioteer and going to the underworld with his favorite.
