That's less than 4 per athlete, not sure why they thought that would be enough.
They ended up only having a little over 2 per athlete after Condoms Georg took 4,000 for balloon animals.
Per athlete or pair of athletes? I'm too lazy to Google
Per athlete. It's about 6 and a half per male athlete.
Which poor guy has half a Dingdong?
You got the numbers backwards. This is one guy who has 6 and a half condoms worth of dingdong.
Why do you specify "male" athlete?
Unless being used for onanism, it's one condom per couple, although trios and other combos, and non penetrative sex probably fudge the math a little).
Because we have statistics for how many male olympians are there, but no stats for how many couples are there. It's worth remembering that olympians don't have to shack up with other olympians. Many of them brought partners, and I would bet at least a few are asexual.
My thought was "per olympian penis", but I admit it doesn't account for non-olympian penises.
