Ryan Lochte: I Peed In London Olympic Swimming Pool « CBS Tampa

[Alpha]

Oh fuck you Ryan, that's really fuckin' disgusting.

[Ben]

Everyone does it.

[timey]

When they are kids and can't control themselves, yes. There's no need for someone like Lochte to do this, considering how short a time they are in there for. The fact he's bragging about it suggests a different motive.

[Ben]

He's there to win medals, if he needs a piss (regardless of if he has just had one) and it helps him perform it's common sense to do it when he needs to.

I don't believe it anyway, the water would have changed colour.

[Ben]

Apparently it's normal for swimmers to do it.

I don't understand why they would need to.
