What event was Zac there for?
This is just getting weirder and weirder.
On another note... I am so disgusted with NBC's coverage. Here we are watching heats -- qualifying -- when there are a dozen other events' finals we could be watching. Between the commercials. And don't get me started on the announcers.
This is just getting weirder and weirder.
Direct TV has a cool option
I just heard a British athlete was robbed last night
Just keeps getting stranger and stranger regarding the Lochte and other swimmers. My question is why would he lie?

He said he was robbed by someone in a police uniform and the person flashed a badge. (I don't follow him on Twitter or Instagram so I did not actually see exactly what he wrote, but my understanding is he seemed to think it was not a real officer, just someone with a costume/uniform.)
The Brazilian government seems to think they made this up to make the Brazilian government look bad. (Whether because they feel he is accusing the police of robbing him or because he is accusing the police/security of not protecting athletes, I'm not sure.)
I don't think he lied, I think that the swimmers didn't want to report it because of the possibility of the real police being involved in the robbery. When he told his friends and family about it, it got in the news and then they had to report it. The delay gives the local officials an opportunity to pass this off as if it didn't happen.
Just my own theory.
That's okay. So's his story.Looks like my theory is developing some holes.
