For most people, the 2024 Paris Olympics is all about competition and sports. But TBH, for me, I’m just excited for the TEA. Because in case you weren’t aware, the athletes are more entertaining off-screen than on — and to prove it, here are some verrrrry NSFW hookup stories and facts from past Olympics that you definitely didn’t know about:
1.
Starting at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, athletes had to sleep on cardboard beds. The flimsy nature was designed on purpose to be “anti-sex“.
2.
This year at the Paris Olympics, organizers have already stocked up on over 300 THOUSAND condoms, which they’re expecting to blow through pretty quickly (no pun intended).
3.
At the Vancouver Olympics in 2010, a group of Canadian, German, and Austrian athletes had an orgy at a house outside the Olympic Village. Yes, an ORGY.
4.
The 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia saw a massive rise in Tinder usage in the Olympic Village — athletes were pretty much running the app.
5.
And speaking of dating apps: at the London 2012 Olympics, Grindr literally CRASHED. Within MINUTES of athletes arriving.
6.
Julie Foudy, who competed in three Olympics from 1996-2004, said she saw people having sex “right out in the open. On the grass, between buildings, people are getting down and dirty.”
7.
The Beijing 2008 Olympics was referred to as a “sex fest,” according to an Olympic table tennis player. This led to a catchphrase for that Olympics: “More sex than Woodstock.”
8.
The sex problem (or maybe it’s not a problem, depending on how you see it) might’ve first started at the 1988 Seoul Olympics, where athletes were having so much outdoor sex, they had to ban it.
9.
At the 1994 Lillehammer Olympics, German bobsledders tried to trade their gold medals for some “group fun” with skier Carrie Sheinberg.
10.
On the plane ride home from Sydney to LA after the 2000 Summer Olympics, it was essentially a sex-fest as well. Not just in the bathroom, but like, in the rows.
11.
That same athlete also was apparently “visited” by at least three women every single day during the 2000 Sydney Olympics, sometimes without more than a couple hours in between.
12.
At the Vancouver 2010 Olympics, officials had to send out an “emergency” shipment of almost 10,000 additional condoms after the initial supply of 100,000 was used up. (Which works out to 14 condoms per person, BTW.)
13.
And what do the actual condoms look like? At the Beijing 2008 Olympics, the Olympic motto “Faster, higher, stronger” was written on the packaging.
14.
The most amount of condoms at an Olympics (that I’ve heard, at least) was 450,000 at the 2016 Rio Olympics. This included — for the first time! — 100,000 female condoms.
15.
At the 2018 PyeongChang Olympics, traffic on both Tinder and PornHub “skyrocketed” specifically within the Olympic Village.
16.
Ryan Lochte, a swimmer who competed in three Olympics, said that around 70 to 75% of Olympians are having sex at the Olympics. Which, wow, is A LOT.
17.
Of course, many coaches enforce rules on athletes — like curfews or banning mixed-gender visits in rooms. There’s also security, like, everywhere in the dorms. But this only leads athletes to (super deviously) sneak out and walk around for hours on end to try and find a spot to hook up.
18.
Gus Kenworthy, who skied in three Olympic Games starting in 2014, said people actually lost their virginity in the Olympic Village.
19.
At the 1976 Olympics in Montreal, one Soviet diver — who was married! — was caught hooking up with another diver on his team. SCANDAL.
So… yeah. I definitely gasped several times when reading these stories, and I’m sure you did too. Who knew Olympic athletes were so… promiscuous?
