Sorry, Olympians, But This Bizarre Restroom Activity Is Banned At Rio 2016

It's probably a good thing.

Is toilet fishing even a thing?

Apparently so, if this instructional sign inside a Rio 2016 bathroom is anything to go by.

U.S. basketball star Elena Delle Donne posted a photograph of the restroom regulations to Instagram on Saturday, and it’s now going viral.

Guess I won't be toilet fishing today 😒

“Guess I won’t be toilet fishing today,” she quipped, in reference to the image on the bottom left — which shows a figure using a fishing rod inside a toilet.

Other bathroom activities that appear to have been banned at the games in Brazil include peeing like a dog (bottom right), vomiting (mid-left) and defecating with your feet on the seat (mid-right).

Canadian snowboarder Sebastien Toutant posted a photograph of a similar sign to Twitter during the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.

“Well that’s interesting ... Sochi rules in the bathrooms!!” he wrote alongside the image ― which also prohibited toilet fishing and peeing while standing up.
