So I wondered what kind of comments there were on the 'net about that, searched for <STAR TREK +ARENA + YARDS>.
One of the first sites that came up was:

That was the one where Kirk concocted some BP and made a cannon, all from found materials, and blew the crap out of the Gorn.
After, mind you, smooshing the Gorn with about a two-ton (~1814.882032667876588021778584392 kg) boulder which the Gorn recovered from. Say, who ya going to believe, me, or your lyin' eyes?
