Grindr shut down: Did Olympic Athletes over load London Grindr?
Some people believe that the influx of Olympians that hit the city last week was the cause of Grindr bottoming out 
.
App founder Joel Simkurai issued an apology to users who had experienced “service disruptions,” and explains, “when we discovered that [Grindr wasn't working], we immediately set to work fixing the screw-up. The service disruption was a challenging thing to address, but our tech team worked around the clock to solve the problems and to whip Grindr back into shape.”
Simkurai doesn’t address the cause of the disruptions, but London tabloid “The People,” attributes it to the influx of Olympic Athletes in London. The publication reports:
A gay dating website crashed within minutes of the first Olympic athletes arriving in London — due to the volume of demand, say experts… Technicians believe the arrival of Olympic teams on Monday sparked a flood of new customers — and loss of the service in East London.
One Londoner told The People, “It happened almost as soon as the teams got here. Either loads of athletes were logging on to meet fellow Olympians or were looking to bag a local.”
Well come on. Hot young Olympians with ampted up sex drives who need to release the stress of the games? Of course that was the reason.

Have you been to England? I think it must have been athletes looking to hook up with their own kind.
