Crazy Anecdotes From ESPN's Story On Sex At The Olympic Village


The naked athletes aren't even the best thing about ESPN The Magazine's "Body Issue."

Instead, Sam Alipour's amazing feature on the ungodly amounts of sex and partying that goes on in the Olympic Village is the highlight.

Alipour spoke with a bunch of former Olympians, who revealed that the Village is one one crazy place. Many of the athletes opened up and told Alipour crazy stories to illustrate how insane the Village gets. These stories include everything from Hope Solo doing the Today Show drunk the morning after cozying up to a celebrity, to a javelin competitor having sex with three women per day in order to stay relaxed.


>-At the 2000 Olympics, javelin competitor Breaux Greer had sex with three women every day
Two were Olympians — a pole vaulter and a hurdler — and the other was a vacationer of Scandinavian decent. He had to pull out of the competition with a knee injury.

Hope Solo snuck a celebrity into her room after winning gold in 2008, but won't say who.  She said she was partying with Vince Vaughn, but didn't say who the celeb she brought back with her was. It's her "Olympics secret," she says.

>-The organizers of the 2000 Olympics ordered 70,000 condoms. It was not enough

 They had to bring in an additional 20,000 condoms to meet demand.
Now 100,000 are provided for every Olympics.

>- The party continues on the plane ride home

In 2000, on a flight from Sydney to LA, the flight attendants put all the Olympians in the back of the plane and the regular people in the front.
Breaux Greer ended up in the bathroom with a "famous Olympian he will not name."
