And it just expanded too fast to pull back in

Hottie Ry said on the Today Show that he didnt have a gf. And was talking about which female athletes from which countries were the "most popular" in the Olympic Village.

This seems so realistic.

No way do they need to pay for sex. Rio looks bad and they want someone to blame.

Either Brazil has some real reason for this, or they're crazy. I'm leaning towards crazy.

It's pretty crappy for him to leave the other three hanging.

This is the only realistic explanation for a falsehood about the robbery I've read on this thread. i.e. there was a robbery but much more embarrassing.

Lochte is very light in his loafers--they were out trolling for rough trade and got rousted. Also, some very expensive gear was stolen from an area--they suspect one of the two swimmers.

Some of the story is lost in writing - he claims the guy put a gun to his head, and he says whatever. In writing this comes off as very contentious. When he interviews and tells the same story the "whatever" is still muttered but it's very much a ok ok, don't shoot me, whatever... You say.

The only thing that surprises me about this is that there weren't more robberies and incidents that they didn't manage to cover up. Last time my company sent me to Brazil on business, they sent me with security (Secret Service style) as well as an armored car. I'm not that important. In the short time I was there, a tourist was gang raped for several hours on a bus in Rio. Did that make the news here? Probably not. It's a beautiful place, but really not safe at all, and the beaches are disgusting--i just hope none of the divers come down with brain eating amoeba!

Not especially. Knowing a swimmer from Rockville doesn't exactly seem like major-league name-dropping on a DC-area forum.

I saw a suggestion he was actually robbed by prostitutes. That could explain a lot. Just saying.

1. Sophisticated criminals robbed them. Savvy enough that they had police uniforms and badges.

2. These criminals robbed him but left him with his expensive watch and $1500 shoes

3. A cocked gun was pointed at his head and he took the opportunity to cock off to the robber

4. Lochte decides not to stay in Rio, where he would have been treated like a king for a week and come home instead


Let's just say I am not buying it.

If I had been robbed at gunpoint in a foreign city, I would be on the next plane out of there with a vow never to set foot in that country again. I agree that the whole story doesn't add up and is quite fishy, but him leaving Brazil is not one of the fishy parts, IMO. That could go either way.

If he stayed in the olympic village, he wouldn't have had to wear pants all week if he didn't want to.

... I doubt he is hurting for sex in the states, either.
