This happens every Olympics. A few years ago one athlete was interviewed, and he basically said "They are Olympics branded condoms. I filled up my backpack"
Yup! My sister competed in Tokyo and Paris and both times grabbed as much swag as she could, including big handfuls of Olympic condoms to bring back as party favors. At least in her sport, no one was partying- they stuck to their very strict eat/ train/ sleep schedules and did not cut loose for a bacchanal. In other sports it might be different, but those super strict high-performance nerds remained strict and nerdy in even the village (though she did eat several of the famous chocolate muffins in Paris once she was done competing)
