Ball Pit
The ball pit made its debut in season 7 of the original American Gladiators and returned for season 2 of the 2008 revival.
The original series used two ball pits as its fourth obstacle. Once reached, the contenders had to wade through one pit, climb out, and then dive into another and wade through it before climbing a wall to get out. In the 2008 series, the ball pit was used as a penalty for falling off the handbike and in order to advance to the next obstacle the contender had to find a way out.
