According to the article 10.000 were provide for 3.000 people, while in Paris 300.000 were provided for 10.500 people, so about 10 times as much. Nothing to do with hornyness, a lot to do with someone in charge being either a cheapskate or a prude.
Also, since 1988 condoms are provided for free to the athletes, and since 1988 the press feels they need to report on this. Yes we get it, these are just normal people doing normal people things.
Nah, it's much worse than that... they're young, beautiful people, at the peak of fitness and health, having the best time of their lives yet in serious need of de-stressing due to the competitive nature of the event (yet unable to do drugs and alcohol due to needing to be in top shape and anti-doping regulations), all bunched together in hotels.
Three condoms per person is evidently way too few to contain that.
So we took a bunch of people in their late teens to mid twenties and put them somewhere new and exciting. We're treating them like rock stars. They're all in peak physical form, good looking, and under constant physical and mental stress.
And you're telling me during their time off they're going to be fucking each other? Who could have predicted this !?
At the 2016 Games in Rio a total of 450,000 condoms where distributed among the 11,180 athletes... 10,000 is a joke (even if the Winter Olympics are a 1/3 of the size of the summer)
Well if you're trapped in a small village with a bunch of fit and lean 20-30 year olds from different countries wouldn't you want to bang them? This happens at every Olympic
“In Paris the athletes received 300,000 condoms — two per day each— but the numbers for these Winter Games were significantly lower: not even 10,000,” La Stampa’s report states.
Just under 3,000 athletes are competing at the Winter Olympics, compared to around 10,500 in the Paris Games two years ago.
Rough estimation says the organizers should’ve provided closer to 100,000 condoms, 10x what they supplied.
In Paris, the beds started breaking.
I thought that didn’t actually happen? Despite reports before the games that the beds were made of cardboard to prevent sex by collapsing under the weight of two people, the organizers denied that was the reason and athletes posted videos during the games showing multiple people jumping on a bed.
The reason for the cardboard was so they could recycle the beds and IIRC it was a Rupert Murdoch tabloid that started the story that it was actually to prevent sex.
I'd jump on my toboggan and zip right out to the local petrol station toilet vending machine with some coins at the ready.
If I don't 'slip and slide' then I don't slip and slide!!!
this has been an ongoing meme since the invention of the Olympics
somebody did a reverse NASA with the tampons here. the correct amount of condoms to order for the Olympics is probably something like (the number that somebody could use if they were fucking 24/7 the entire event) x (the number of attendees) x (quadruple it for good measure)
There was an interview with an Olympian who said its not really that much of a hook up time. Its that you only get this one chance to take olympic condoms. So people just grab them as souvenirs. Who wouldn't want to take home an olympic condom?
There are plenty of other activities to keep athletes busy in the Olympic village, including a large gym, table football and air hockey games and even a piano. There are also free drinks machines, stacked with Coca-Cola and Innocent smoothies.
Uh-huh, as opposed to banging the entire Volleyball team
A bunch of fit young people pushed together into a tiny village. Why wouldn’t you have literal truck loads of protection? They’re very obviously going to fuck like rabbits.
I’ll easily use 2 condoms in one session… sometimes it rolls in a bad way or you put too much lube. If I was given 3 condoms to last me the whole Olympics, I’d first thing DoorDash a pack of 30 (since athletes aren’t allowed to leave the village).
A friend's stepfather used to live in Alaska and he told us, Middle school kids, that when you are stuck inside all the time, all there is to do is fuck and get drunk

You’re right about the beds and it’s a bit of a joke but I do recall now that it was a Murdoch anti environmentalist slag who wrote it up.
