The Vancouver Condom Shortage is the Best Story of the Winter Olympics
Michael Hines — February 27, 2010 — Naughty
The Vancouver condom shortage is the most gripping story to come out of the 2010 Winter Olympics. Athletes work hard, and apparently they play harder. Way, way harder.
The athletes in the 7,000 athletes in the Olympic Village were allotted 100,000 free condoms, or about 14 condoms per person. Needless to say, they blew through them like it was nobody's business and now they need more. The Vancouver condom shortage is soon to be remedied, an emergency shipment is on the way. Thank God.
