Hungary for gold, thrown for bronze

Pumping roids but for all the world, Olympian bladders are put under the immense squeeze of urination on demand following events. Short of being ninjas looking to walk on their hands as they navigate the dusted, the failure to do so leads not to death, but sorry sanctions and dishonourable disqualification.

Recently collecting first in discus, Robert Fazekas, 29, of Hungary, has been caught with the injected flavour of medal tally-hoeing by adding a bronze to his gold medal in the ancestral precursor to frolf. Awarded by the International Olympic Committee for "refusing, or failing without compelling justification, to submit to sample collection after notification," Fazekas marks the third juiced athlete of the Games of the XXVIII Olympiad to be found out raging with the anabolic.

This completes the preliminary medalling with Leonidas Sampanis of Greece with the gold and Russian Irina Korzhanenko from the Russian Federation with the silver. Unlike the previous two, Fazekas was found out by not being able to "provide a complete urine sample" for testing.
