Phelps caught smoking from a bong

The competition isn't the only thing he's been smoking!

Olympic hero and 14-time gold medalist Michael Phelps has been caught cradling a glass bong — a scene so potentially damaging to his career that his representatives allegedly tried to buy off the British newspaper News Of The World in an attempt to kill the story, the paper reports.

The winner of a record eight gold medals last summer in Beijing was spotted knocking back shots and chugging beers at a house party at the University of South Carolina in Columbia on Nov. 6, when a partygoer handed him the water pipe etched with red writing.

Michael Phelps "knew exactly what to do" with the bong, a witness said. (NEWS OF THE WORLD / FOXSports.com)

"He grabbed the bong and a lighter and knew exactly what to do," a witness said of the swimming superstar, who was in town visiting a gal pal and South Carolina coed.

"He looked just as natural with a bong in his hands as he does swimming in the pool. He was the gold medal winner of bong hits."

The report allegedly made Phelps' handlers so paranoid that they offered the paper an eye-popping deal to keep it from seeing the light of day — having Phelps pen a column for the paper for three years.

His camp also allegedly offered to host parties for the tabloid and push his sponsors to advertise with them.

"It's seeing if something potentially very negative for Michael could turn into something very positive for the News of the World," his spokesman, Clifford Bloxham, told the paper.

The scandal could be a major buzz kill for Phelps, whose agent, Peter Carlisle, has said Phelps could bag up to $100 million in endorsements.

The world-record holder's deals with Visa, PowerBar, AT&T Wireless and Speedo may all be in jeopardy.

During the two-day stay, the normally reserved Phelps was spotted partying hard with a flock of females.

"He arrived with a group of girls hanging all over him. Every girl wanted a piece of him and every guy wanted to be his best buddy," the student told the paper.

"He couldn't get enough of all the attention."

This isn't the first scandal for the golden boy, who was arrested in 2004 for driving under the influence near his home in suburban Baltimore, when he was 19. He was sentenced to 18 months probation and fined $250.

Phelps' spokesman did not return repeated requests for comment.

Sounds like Michael Phelps has been getting his pimp on.

Well, people need to stop acting so surprised over shit like this, it's a well known fact that most athletes at all levels do drugs like this and more. In fact, many of them are even involved in violent crime. It's sad that athletes are the role-models of children in today's society, they live some of the most selfish, pointless existences one can possibly live. All of those calories, food that could have gone to a poor family struggling to meet ends, devoted to what is essentially a useless human being, Michael Phelps. Truly, humanity is in need for genetic reform.

Who gives a shit?

Nobody who matters, british tabloids just love leading witch hunts and working towards damaging peoples careers. There is an unfortunately large amount of people that choose to read tabloid newspapers, allowing them to continue doing the shit they do.

Yeah man, who gives a fuck?

[Rocko]

Are we caring about this?

For fucks sake, get off his ass. If I were him I would've said it was tobacco with as straight a face as possible.

Most if not all of the kids on my school's swim team have met him before. Some of them even know him pretty well. And they all hate him. Apparently he's just as much of a prick as he looks. He's infamous for showing up to parties and breaking things.

[Sir Cornwell]

So? He's not all mellow like Ross Rebagliati? Maybe he should hang out a Whistler.

Pack the bong for Phelps and a free buds in the bag for Rebagliati!

The problem is keeping that straight face.

I really think that...

Phelps is a Hardcore faggot

[Fish]

"He was the gold medal winner of bong hits."

LOL

I can't believe that got into the article. And for the record, I'd bet that more than a few people would be willing to challenge him for that medal.

[Saline Colors]

He's a little asshole.

[k4aic]

If I was him, I would not have aplogized..fuck that..weed isnt bad..I would have told people to fuck off its my business...he probably just said sorry cause he is in the public eyeballs of scrutiny..

but hey at least it makes potheads not seem as lazy haha good for phelps!

Rebagliati already "gave his support" to Micheal Phelps with a phone call or something. I wonder what he said.....

"wanna sess?"

Sup man, i live in Baltimore also, in the Towson area to be exact. Im a Towson High School drop out as of recently, the same school where Phelps went. Where in Baltimore do you live and how old are you/what area schools, if any, did/do you go to. I know Phelps by association and yes you are correct about his "party fouls" as far as i've heard. I find it really interesting to find people who live by me on internet forums, we could possibly know each other or at least by association. Hell if you feel like it IM me on my AIM acct, "Trashman743" unless you are one of those freaks who thinks I may be a cop trying to find/arrest you for some mentioned crime, though i can promise you i am not lol.

He's not making it on Oprah, but he is going to the Netherlands.

Congrats

More like a hardcore faggot.

Edit: I've been beaten.

[-Fuck-]

See, this is why I like to go running at 4 am when everyone is sleeping. I would honestly hate to be famous for anything, because I don't want to be killed in a car accident like Princess Diana by some psychos jerking off at the wheel.

So the kid had a fucking bong hit. Look how these monsters jump on his dick. I hate the fucking media, jesus, at least get a job doing something that's more of a necessity to the world than celebrity masturbation. A kid bagging groceries for an old lady for 7 bucks an hour has better actions than these losers. I swear, you get caught up in the paparazzi career your whole life will become phony gossip.

ATTENTION POT HEADS!

LOS ANGELES – In an unprecedented PR move, Olympic gold medalist and American swim champ, Michael Phelps, is retracting the apology he made earlier this week regarding his recent use of marijuana.

Pro-marijuana endorsement offers began to catch the attention of Phelps and his management team. “He’s been offered the cover of High Times magazine and a lucrative contract from a medical marijuana supply company. He’s also in negotations with an all-hemp swimwear designer, who thinks that Michael could breathe life into their fledgling company,” says Michelle L’Anderson, a image consultant for Phelps.

Rush Limbaugh spoke in support of Phelps. “The world is used to seeing celebrejects like Lindsay Lohan and Kate Moss get into trouble, time and time again, and these are people who have problems with serious drugs. Unfortunately, they rely on marginal talent over endorsements to keep them afloat and they manage to remain quite successful. What’s wrong with giving a little credence to someone who truly is talented and who is smart enough to use a drug that’s been proven safe?”

Phelps publicized statement was brief: “It turns out I’m not so stupid and I didn’t make a huge mistake. I’m not sorry I smoked marijuana and there’s a pretty good chance I’ll do it again. Hey, do you want to hear me say ‘roll a fat one’ in Japanese? I’m Rosetta Stoned!”

id be an ass too if i was the fastest man in the water

[CotDeath]

He does sound like a douche.
Personally, I don't think weed is particularly performance enhancing so I don't see how it should affect his career.

[Rykoshet]

Anyone who's won 8 gold medals in one olympic game, and set countless world records can feel free to belittle him for his smoking of "the dope".

Otherwise all the assholes can stfu.
