He lied because he was cheating on his gf.

He might be the dumbest Olympian of all time with apologies to Ben Johnson.

It would be hilarious if the Brazilians threw him in jail.

**Ratpack** · 08-17-16, 01:32 PM

I think that hair dye leaked into his brain and he was jealous phelps was getting all the press and he wanted some of that press

**Optional** · 08-17-16, 01:36 PM

Do we know he lied?

**innovation** · 08-17-16, 02:14 PM

acting tough staring down a barrel usually isn't the case....

"We got pulled over, in the taxi, and these guys came out with a badge, a police badge, no lights, no nothing just a police badge and they pulled us over. They pulled out their guns, they told the other swimmers to get down on the ground — they got down on the ground. I refused, I was like we didn’t do anything wrong, so — I’m not getting down on the ground."

"And then the guy pulled out his gun, he cocked it, put it to my forehead and he said, ‘Get down,’ and I put my hands up, I was like ‘Whatever.’ He took our money, he took my wallet — he left my cell phone, he left my credentials."

Where did you see this? It wouldn't be shocking because, jeah.

**d2bets** · 08-17-16, 03:54 PM

Weird thing to make up to involve the other swimmers too. No one else can verify any of this?

**turtlejc** · 08-17-16, 03:54 PM

i said from the moment i heard about this that something is off

some punk swimmer isnt all cool and calm after getting a 9 pointed at his skull

**d2bets** · 08-17-16, 04:03 PM

I really doubt the story is completely made up. Maybe embellished. It's a black eye for Brazil so they'd like it to not be true.

**Itsamazing777** · 08-17-16, 05:06 PM

He was prob drunk

**trytrytry** · 08-17-16, 05:14 PM

Officially what had another named swimmer said

**pavyracer** · 08-17-16, 05:19 PM

He used his credit card for hookers and claimed robbery to get the credit card to do a charge back.

**Roadtrip635** · 08-17-16, 05:32 PM

Probably jealous of all the attention Phelps has been getting

When since has Brazilian hookers been taking CC's? I've only known cash and stroke.

**thetrinity** · 08-17-16, 05:37 PM

He and the others were high as a kite more than likely

Only reason I believe him is shit like this is common in Latin American. Fake cops Rob your valuables and run.

Cash and stroke!!! Hilarious!!!!!

**Booya711** · 08-17-16, 06:14 PM

Swimmers only relevant once every four years...if this is true fukk him

**Ghenghis Kahn** · 08-17-16, 06:15 PM

who knows what exactly happened but this is from an article about lochte... brazil is a shady country.

"Despite the simmering controversy, it is not uncommon for the police in Rio to be implicated in armed assaults.
Shortly before the start of the Olympics, Jason Lee, a jujitsu champion from New Zealand, said he had been briefly kidnapped by police officers and forced to withdraw about $800 from his bank account."

Yeah this would have to go down as the worse olympics ever...

Did you hear the crowd booing the French pole vaulted who beat the local guy for the silver medal??

Guy was in tears. Classless Brazilians thinking this was a football match...

So much bad shit been swept under the rug as well...

**Kaabee** · 08-17-16, 06:31 PM

The local guy got the gold. French guy then compared his being booed to Jesse Owens and the Nazis.

**MoneyLineDawg** · 08-17-16, 06:34 PM

Some people speculating they either got robbed trying to buy drugs or in a brothel....maybe both

Either way his story is bullshit...."everyone got down except me"

**Roadtrip635** · 08-17-16, 09:13 PM

Total BS story. If you look at the video when they returned back to the Olympic Village after the "robbery", at least 3 of them were still wearing watches. The robbers didn't steal their cell phones, credentials or watches? Their stories don't match up either, mixing up the stories.....

**Kaabee** · 08-17-16, 09:15 PM

Most likely trying to cover up some Brazilian ladyboy scandal.

They could have been robbed of the cash by the pimp. Like they paid $500 for hookers in advance and the pimp took the money and run.

**will2survive** · 08-17-16, 09:21 PM

This is so stupid. HE HAS NO REASON TO LIE! What does he gain? Nothing. It's a crime-ridden area and they're treating him like he's the criminal. If that was me, I'd throw the gold medal in the trash. I would be insulted. If he wanted attention, that would be a great way to get it.

Then they are stupid fukks. You don't report that shit. Chalk it up to getting played. Lochte won't be going back to Brazil again.

Did he win a gold in this Olympics? I thought he never got out of the semis?

He won a team relay gold this olympics and probably others in his career

6 gold, 3 silver, and 3 bronze medals for his career. No need to make up a crime.

I know he won many in his career. He's a former Gator. He was very slow this year in everything. What event did he medal?

That sounds closer to what the actual truth is, but like it was said above, you don't report that. You gotta chalk it up to stupidity and move on. Common, you don't get robbed of your valuables at gunpoint and get to keep your cellphones and watches.

**ChuckyTheGoat** · 08-17-16, 10:02 PM

The funniest part is Lochte (supposedly) being unphased by a Smith+Wesson pressed against his skull.

Lochte stays defiant: "I have no reason to get on the ground."
