Olympic athletes promised fresh stocks of condoms on Valentine’s Day after villages run short
On Valentine’s Day at the Milan Cortina Olympics, a renewed supply of free
’s for the athlete villages was promised by the organizers after going short during the week.
“We can confirm that condom supplies in the Olympic Villages were temporarily depleted due to higher-than-anticipated demand,” the Italian organizing committee said in a statement Saturday. “Additional supplies are being delivered and will be distributed across all villages between today and Monday.”
“I think 10,000 have been used, 2,800 athletes — you can go figure, as they say,” International Olympic Committee spokesman Mark Adams said Saturday. “It clearly shows that Valentine’s Day is in full swing in the village.”
