Well, they do have events called "the snatch" and the "clean and jerk" . . .

In the report, the ESPN writer revealed some rather scandalous facts, including that 100,000 condoms are ordered for the Games. Apparently officials at the 2000 Sydney Games had to put in an order for 20,000 extra condoms after the initial 70,000 ran out. Since then, an order of 100,000 has become the norm.



Even Hope Solo, a soccer star and Olympic gold-medalist, copped to the raucous nights, when sex comes as either a celebratory act or a "consolation prize."
"I've seen people having sex right out in the open. On the grass, between buildings, people are getting down and dirty," Solo told ESPN The Magazine.
"Going for the gold" just took on a new meaning . . . but guys, don't turn your back on the Greco-Roman wrestling athletes.  Not that there's anything wrong with that.
I don't even want to think about what goes down in a pentahlon.  I mean, they use a horse . . . 
I wonder how prevalent this is at the Paralympic Games.  Shut up, physical disabilities don't necessarily preclude "floor exercises," if you catch my drift.
