Medicine Ball Gauntlet
In this obstacle, which was present for the first two episodes of Season 3 of the original American series, contenders were greeted by two Gladiators armed with giant medicine balls approximately 6 feet in diameter. The Gladiators were allowed to use the medicine balls to block the contender's progress and were allowed to double team the contenders. The wall that preceded the gauntlet was often knocked out of alignment due to the strength of the Gladiators. It was replaced by a second 8 foot wall on the third episode of the season.

Famous quotes containing the words medicine and/or ball:
“As there is a use in medicine for poisons, so the world cannot move without rogues.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Don’t tell me what delusion he entertains regarding God, or what mountebank he follows in politics, or what he springs from, or what he submits to from his wife. Simply tell me how he makes his living. It is the safest and surest of all known tests. A man who gets his board and lodging on this ball in an ignominious way is inevitably an ignominious man.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
