So honestly, how ready is Athens?

The True Love Waits people are putting together a display at the Athens Olympics of The Athens Card, on which you sign that you are prepared to wait until marriage before you have sex. Teenagers and young adults all over the world are asked to sign their card and send it to the Hellenic Ministries office in Athens.
While I fully support every person's full right to make their own decision about what their own sexual activity is going to be, the analogies possible are just painful.
I mean, given the current readiness of the Athens Olympic facilities, are we talking coitus interruptus here? Would Athens have been better to abstain in the first place? If the Games themselves are screwed, where does this leave this campaign?
And finally, surely if the campaign bears fruit, doens't that mean it's failed?
And for those who truly believe, there is a non-official version of the True Love Waits Musical.
