Free condoms have been a tradition at the Winter Olympics since 1988, with competitors claiming they’ve already run out in just three days.Athletes are apparently rampantly having sex at the Olympic Villages, and with their ‘anti-sex’ beds back in force for another year, you can probably see why they were introduced.Sports stars no longer have to sleep on cardboard frames for the first time in six years.The cardboard was initially introduced to cause ‘minimal environmental impact and a second life for all equipment’.Instead of preventing the sex fest, as it turns out, competitors of the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan and Cortina were able to rest their heads on sturdier beds, with Brit ice dancer Phebe Bekker revealing mattresses and a headboard.Last year, the cardboard beds caused a stir, but not as much as the news that Olympians were given 300,000 free condoms by organisers, totalling two condoms per person, per day.

But that amount has been sorely underestimated this time around, leading to a condom drought.“The supplies ran out in just three days,” an anonymous athlete told the Italian newspaper, La Stampa. “They promised us more will arrive, but who knows when.”Apparently, the organisers had been ‘particularly generous with the numbers’ when ‘in Paris’ they enjoyed the 300,000.But La Stampa reports that the Winter Olympics have seen ‘not even 10,000’ handed out to the below 3,000 athletes.Alpine ski racer Laurenne Ross admitted she ‘hooked up with everyone’ while speaking to Cosmopolitan in 2018.Then, Skeleton racer John Daly told the publication why athletes seem to have so much sex, explaining: “Incredibly good-looking [athletes], perfect bodies, tight Spandex… of course there’s gonna be some hooking up! Would you expect anything else!?””The condoms are Olympic strong,” Paralympic alpine skier Andrew Kurka also said, while Paralympic sledge hockey athlete Rico Roman added: “What happens in the Olympic Village, stays in the Olympic Village.”
