Sex and the village -- the Olympic Village, that is

A two-time Olympic athlete -- OK, so he was a table tennis player -- says there's more action in the Village than on the field, court, pool or track. Apparently, once an athlete's competition is over, the real games begin.

Guess I should have practiced harder like coach said.

 

Was brought up in the Olympics thread when it first appeared.

 

Yeah, this is like a huge surprise. BFD

 

And watch out for the Chinese gymnasts. Even if you get age confirmation, you can't trust them. You don't want to end up in a Beijing labor camp.

 

I guess I'm always surprised to hear any time that women are giving it up freely - mostly because it always seemed so damned hard to get anywhere in my day. I mean, even if a woman was totally willing for a consensual good time, you'd have the girl rescue squad showing up 30 seconds after the door closed.

And I can't imagine the Olympians are huge drinkers, so that takes that out of play.

 

Actually, they are once competition ends. Especially the Aussies.

 

This pretty much applies to most elite level athletes. I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area (right next to Stanford in Palo Alto), and Stanford stadium hosted many of the matches when the U.S. hosted the world cup in 1994. The Brazilian national soccer team stayed in a hotel nearby in Los Gatos, and lets just stay that the stories of how out of control their partying was are still legendary in those parts.

 

And now you live in a van down by the river?

 

Well played.

 

I take it you weren't an Olympic table tennis player. Chicks just can't resist.

 

Who hasn't been cockblocked by the girl rescue squad? I just hate 'em so much.

 

True that Mustang. When girls go out they never go out alone, they have to bring all their friends with them. That significantly decreases the guys chance of hooking up.
