Where the Rubber Meets the Gold

AOl-

Winter is coming and so are the Olympic athletes.

With less than a month to go before the opening of the Winter Olympics in South Korea, a record-breaking 110,000 condoms have been donated to be be made available for all athletes competing in the 2018 games — that’s 10,000 more than the amount rubbers distributed in Vancouver in 2012 and in Sochi in 2014.

With 2,925 men and women set to participate, it averages out to nearly 38 condoms per athlete over the two-week period — though the sheaths will also be available to members of the press and staff.

“Baskets with condoms will be placed at both men’s and women’s toilets at athletes’ village in Pyeongchang and Gangneung, the main press center, the medical village as well as the medical center,” organizers told the South China Morning Post.
