Former Olympian revealed as Vegas escort

[JonInMiddleGA]

I'm not sure this warrants its own thread but darned if I could figure out what other thread to attach it to.

Turns out that 3-time Olympic ('92, '96, '00) runner Suzy Favor Hamilton has spent the past year living a double life. By day she & her husband owned a successful real estate business in the Midwest, by some nights & weekends she was Kelly Lundy, the 3rd highest rated escort in Sin City.

Not much doubt here, TSG interviewed her & got quotes, she's pretty much owned up to the whole deal.

I'm kind of surprised the "3rd highest rated escort" (who votes on that, the AP?) in Vegas would only generate $600/hour.

[DaddyTorgo]

Sounds like she had a kinky side that wasn't being scratched. That's fine. I'm not going to judge her.

Looks like she was worth the $$ too, from what I can tell.

[JediKooter]

Well, with lips like hers, I can see why she came in 3rd.

Ya, pro-rating her rate down to $150 for 15 minutes, uh, OK, that's cool. You know, if that's how it works.

She's only 5th in the AP, but really strong in all the computer polls.

Tiger woods votes for that

That makes a lot of sense - she's probably really solid in the tangible measurables, but maybe lacking that made-up-but-convincing-enough-when-the-client-is-boozed-up-human-connection-quality that other escorts and strippers have mastered.

I'm thinking maybe she's only 3rd because, well, she's apparently dumb as a brick. I mean, seriously, she told clients who she was and expected them to keep the secret.

Haven't heard a peep about this locally yet.

[SackAttack]

Am I the only one who looked at her name and was completely unsurprised?

I this is just a random guy who sent this to Wetzel in response to her B1G heritage:

[Passacaglia]

Not sure which youtube video to embed "Stars of Track and Field" or "The Loneliness of a Middle Distance Runner"

[Peregrine]

I'll have to see the video to see if she really deserved all those medals in the escort Olympics.

Really enjoyed the Deadspin commenter:

Juan "Hello? Ah, si. I'm looking for the girl who ran in Olympics?"
Madam "What??? We have no idea what you're talking about."
Juan "You know. The... chica rubia? With the money problems???"
Madam [sigh] "What's the password?"
Juan "Poor Favor."

[britrock88]

What's the Hamilton that she seems to favor? Sounds exotic.

[stevew]

If she wants to own it, good for her.

[Desnudo]

Is this how we sneak in naughty pics now?

[Young Drachma]

She needs to play a tougher schedule if she wants to raise her ranking.

[sterlingice]

Is #3 call girl in Vegas like the #3 in Al Qaeda? Important enough to rank, but not enough to double check the ranking?

SI

The seven year old daughter is going to be messed up in life. Also, can't believe the husband stuck around knowing she was doing this.

[digamma]

Because I don't want to be the one who google searches them, anyone know what the "sex act" acronyms are in the reviews cited on the TSG article:
DATY, RCG, DFK?

Another site had someone who already had them done:

DATY - Dining At The Y
RCG - Reverse Cow Girl
DFK - Deep French Kiss

Not everyone is monogamous. But the kid is really the only person I care about here.

[Warhammer]

Wait, she's a distance runner...

She love you long time, long time.

[Matthean]

She looks decent in some pics, but for somebody who was suppose to be #3 in Sin City, I'm kind of disappointed.

You all should be looking at this escort ranking system under a much more skeptical eye. I wouldn't expect any kind of impartiality from the type of person who rates escorts online. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't be surprised if they gave some of the best escorts artificially low scores in order to keep their price/demand down, much like how anonymous NFL front offices will say that a hot draft prospect has "character issues" in hopes of scaring away other teams from drafting him before their pick.

[bulletsponge]

and she was #3 at that escort service. they might be skank heavy, and she might be real freaky in bed
