Oh, to be an Olympic Athlete

Can you believe this?

For those of you who don’t want to click the above thread, the summary is as follows:

Olympic Organizers for the Sydney Olympics later this year are providing 100,000 free condoms to the Athlete’s village. This figure is based upon previous years’ consumption rate.

How many athletes will BE there? We’re only talking about a little over two weeks, people. Even if there are 10,000 male (I pulled the number out of the air, sue me) athletes, this leads me to assume that the average male Olympic athlete gets laid at least 4 times a week. This figure does not include those who gaily go in bareback, or other forms of sexual contact that do not necessitate the use of a condom.

Would anyone like to start working out with me?

From the article – “They would come in a range of colors, including gold, silver, and bronze.”

Makes you wonder what the qualifying event was to determine your color.

It would also make me wonder about the moral status of the judge in question. :smiley:

Well, there’s a whole 4 days to go, the Olympic village has gone through about 60k condoms, and is ordering in another lot more to satisfy the demand.

Wild. Absolutely wild.

Sounds like there are already a lot of demands being satisfied.

Recent joke -

Man goes the drug store to buy some condoms, and finds a new brand, “Olympic Condoms”, which come in three colors, gold, silver and bronze. The fellow purchases them and goes home to his wife. Excited and amused, he shows them to his wife, who is also amused. Then the man pulls out one of the gold condoms and says to his wife “Well baby it looks like I’m goin’ for the gold tonight!” to which his wife replies “How about you wear the silver one, it’s about time you came second.”
