Word has reached BNI Olympic HQ that some athletes in the Olympic Village are going at it like rabbits.
When there are thousands of perfectly toned and tanned men and women from around the world cooped up in the Village with plenty of time on their hands it's hardly surprising.
So I did a little under the cover research -- and it seems the rumours are true.
Durex has donated 130,000 free condoms to athletes, along with 30,000 sachets of lubricant.
There are 10,500 athletes and 3,000 team officials staying in the Olympic Village, which means there are 10 free condoms per person.
Some athletes must be going for the gold medal in horizontal jogging.
Needless to say, there are no free condoms available in the Media Villages -- and if you read the Washington Post article I linked to earlier you'll understand why.

This isn't new, Stuart: the Village is built like student dorms, and after the events it's time to party: after all, when else will you be up close and personal with that much international totty? The Sydney village in 2000 actually ran out of condoms at the start of Week 2.
Typically, the boinkfest goes into full effect after the swimming gala ends: swimmers are notorious for making up for the weeks of abstinence before a major competition. Their Olympic events always end with an entire week to go, and I don't think many will be leaving before the closing ceremony.
(One thing, Stuart: as a British expat in the US, I've heard a few people talking about some of the less gracious American athletes getting booed. NBC's not mentioning it. Any truth to that?)
