Thousands of Olympic condoms to be auctioned
A souvenir collector who somehow got his hands on 5,000 condoms due to be handed out to athletes at the Beijing 2008 Olympics, is set to sell them at auction.After the games ended the man managed to snap up most of the 100,000 which hadn't been used by randy sports people.
Each of the Olympic prophylactics is in a branded wrapper which has the motto of the Beijing Games "faster, higher, stronger" printed in it.
The 5,000 condoms will now be sold as a single lot at a Chinese sporting auction on 29 November - with a starting price that works out to one yuan each (8p).
We are not sure it would be that great to be stuck with 5,000 condoms promoting how fast you were on the packet.
100,000 condoms were handed out to athletes at the Beijing 2008 Olympics along with sex education leaflets and videos in a host of different languages.
As there were 10,500 athletes that meant they could have had nine condoms each.
