Yes, and there has even been a Simpson's episode that made reference to this. They had Homer on the same sort of odd triangular - triskelion? - grid that Kirk had to fight on where he had to stay on the yellow pattern and his opponents off of it. Someone made some comment about betting 2000 Quatloos on Homer. This was an hommage to ST:TOS.
A Quatloo is some unspecified alien currency amount, but in this context, used particularly by a disembodied voice to bet on a gladiatorial conflict in which lives hung in the balance, and in whose background cheesy TOS fight music was being played....
You really have to see it to appreciate it. I guess TOS is now so antiquated that a lot of folks have never seen it, and at $344 Cdn for the DVD set of all the TOS, they aren't meant to either!
