Olympic Village Supplies 150,000 Condoms to Athletes, Raising Sex Morality  Debate

In a controversial move Olympic officials will reportedly provide  more than 150,000 condoms to athletes at no cost during the London 2012 Olympic  Games.

The record number of condoms will be provided to thousands of athletes from  around the world in a bid to promote safe sex. However, while some athletes have  supported the cause, critics believe that the effort by Olympic officials  actually goes to promote immoral behavior.

“There’s a lot of sex going on,” women’s soccer goalkeeper Hope Solo told  ESPN. Adding that in extreme cases she has even seen athletes engaging in sex  “right out in the open” in the Olympic Village. She shockingly revealed: “On the  grass, between buildings, people are getting down and dirty.”

Will you still medal in the morning?

Josh Lakatos faced a conundrum. Halfway through the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, he and his rifle-toting teammates were finished with their events, and the U.S. Olympic Committee and team officials had ordered them to turn in the keys to their three-story house and head back to the States. But Lakatos didn’t want to leave. He knew from his experience four years earlier in Atlanta, where he’d won silver, that the Olympic Village was just about to erupt into a raucous party, and there was no way he was going to miss it. So he asked the maid at the emptied-out dwelling if she’d kindly look the other way as he jimmied the lock. “I don’t care what you do,” she replied.

Within hours, word of the nearly vacant property had spread. Popping up once every two years, the Olympic Village is a boisterous city within a city: chock-full of condos, midrises and houses as well as cafés, barbershops, arcades, discos and TV lounges. The only thing missing is privacy — nearly everyone is stuck with a roommate. So while Lakatos claimed a first-floor suite for himself, the remaining rooms were there for the taking. The first to claim space that night were some Team USA track and field fellas.

“The next morning,” Lakatos says, “swear to God, the entire women’s 4×100 relay team of some Scandinavian-looking country walks out of the house, followed by boys from our side. And I’m just going, ‘Holy crap, we’d watched these girls run the night before.’”

And on it went for eight days as scores of Olympians, male and female, trickled into the shooter’s house — and that’s what everyone called it, Shooters’ House — at all hours, stopping by an Oakley duffel bag overflowing with condoms procured from the village’s helpful medical clinic. After a while, it dawned on Lakatos: “I’m running a friggin’ brothel in the Olympic Village! I’ve never witnessed so much debauchery in my entire life.”
