Dan Orlovsky washes his shower towel once every 30 days, which, gross

Dan Orlovsky

At this point, ESPN’s Dan Orlovsky is known for being a little … out there. A couple of examples include a great dog bark imitation and a hilarious clarification that he once didn’t, in fact, pass gas on Monday Night Football.

But Orlovsky can also overshare about himself sometimes. His latest personal factoid might take the cake.

On Tuesday, Baltimore Ravens cornerback Marlon tweeted a harmless thought about how he’d like to dry off after a shower without a towel. It’d be a perfectly normal, if comical, tweet for any of us. Orlovsky replied and said Humphrey was “weirder” than him.

Why? Orlovsky explained that he really likes shower towels. And I mean, he really likes them.

How much does he like them, you might ask? The football analyst said he usually uses one at least 30 times before throwing it into the laundry.

My reaction, much like I assume yours is: Uh, gross.

I have to be honest. I’m probably throwing a shower towel in the laundry after maybe two uses … at most. Thirty times, if we’re to safely assume Orlovsky showers at least once a day, extends out to an entire month. If he showers something like twice a day, that’s still just about two weeks.

Newsflash: They’re cloth, Dan! They need to be washed more often than most household items!

Fans on Twitter were rightfully disgusted by Orlovsky’s towel tidbit and had so many jokes about it.
