150,000 Condoms Handed Out To Olympic Athletes

Ready for some exercise: 15, 000 condoms have been made available to the athletes during the games

You'd think they might want to save their energy but it seems that Olympic athletes will be working up more of a sweat off the field than they will on it this Summer. In a sign of what the world's fittest sportsmen and women get up to in the Olympic village, a record 150,000 free condoms - 15 for each competitor - have been made available to them.

According to ESPN’s Body Issue:

The Olympic Village is basically one giant sex-fest. US women’s soccer player Hope Solo was especially vocal on the issue, claiming she slept with a celebrity (that she wouldn’t name) and that people are having sex right out in the open “On the grass, between buildings. People are getting down and dirty.”

At the 2000 Sydney Olympics 70,000 free condoms available, and that was not enough, an additional 20,000 condoms had to be brought in to meet demand. Since then 100,000 condoms have been made available but it was upped to 150,000 this year because…well it’s London LOL!
