Free condoms for competitors at the Winter Olympics have run out within a record-breaking three days, according to La Stampa. “In Paris the athletes received 300,000 condoms — two per day each — but the numbers for these Winter Games were significantly lower: not even 10,000,” La Stampa’s report states. Just under 3,000 athletes are competing at the Winter Olympics, compared to around 10,500 in the Paris Games two years ago. “Yes, we provide free condoms to athletes in the Olympic village,” he said in a social media post. “They have everything you need.”There are plenty of other activities to keep athletes busy in the Olympic village, including a large gym, table football and air hockey games and even a piano.
