Emergency shipment of condoms headed to Olympic athletes

Rowdy curling crowds; spontaneous street parties; public drunkeness. You don't have to look far for evidence that the crowds at Winter Games in Vancouver know how to have a good time.

And, as if anymore proof is needed that a wild Olympic atmosphere permeates B.C.'s largest city, now there's an apparent condom shortage.

That's right. As you read this, an emergency shipment of condoms is desperately making its way across Canada to the West Coast city.

Health officials in Vancouver have already provided 100,000 free condoms to the roughly 7,000 ahtletes and officials at the Games. That's about 14 condoms per person. But as of Wednesday, those supplies started running dangerously low.:-)

It's an old Olympic tradition. The type story runs during every Olympics, summer and winter. "Working girls" make a fortune during these times.

But the Canadian women's hockey team gets reprimanded for public drinking and smoking. WTF?
