The amount of sexual intercourse that goes on in the Olympic Village every two years is legendary. In fact, they even encourage it by providing 100,000 condoms for free. If that’s not enough, the 2012 Olympics in London have a sexual logo. We touched on the reason two years ago by saying, “The Olympic Village is like a summer sleep-away camp but worse — you’re sticking a bunch of sexually deprived world-class athletes all in closed quarters, with nothing but raging, competitive hormones pumping through their veins.” That’s why it’s no surprise to read that they almost ran out of condoms in Vancouver this week. From the National Post via Sports by Brooks:
Health officials in Vancouver have already provided 100,000 free condoms to the roughly 7,000 ahtletes and officials at the Games. That’s about 14 condoms per person. But as of Wednesday, those supplies started running dangerously low.
So naturally, the Canadian Foundation for AIDS research decided to step and make sure there were no hitches in Olympic action.
Three boxes of about 8,500 condoms were sent in as relief. Any wonder why Lindsey Vonn’s husband serves as her manager? Dude’s no dummy. It’s just a shame that the Winter Games don’t have as many good looking girls as the Summer Games in Beijing. The same can probably be said for the men.



German speedskater Patrick Beckert might not be close to the top of his field but he’s good enough to be an alternate at the Winter Games in Vancouver. The poor guy hit some bad luck on Wednesday when he got a call to replace Italy’s Enrico Fabris in the men’s 1000m race. He apparently didn’t receive notice until 15 minutes prior to the race, leaving him too little time to make it to the hall. What’s the reason for the late notice? Beckert had his cell phone off. Beckert wasn’t the only skater with bad luck — he was the fourth alternate meaning they couldn’t get a hold of the other three!
