Why you should sit on a towel in a sauna

One of the little things i've come to really enjoy while I'm in Kuwait is the sauna in the gym.  I love the feeling of a good sweat, to be honest, at least a 1/4 of the times i workout and 3/4 of the times i go running is to break a good sweat.  There is just something peaceful and relaxing about it, like all the stress and worry leaving.

Anyways, today's post is about a not so clean experience i had last night.  There is a sign on the sauna door about bringing a towel to sit on and while i have almost always done this, i never really thought much about it.  So last night after a little jog and workout, i head to the sauna and whats the first thing i notice, its a rather large nude man sitting on the bench with a towel thankfully draped across his lap.  He was easily 280, maybe 300 lbs.  He had a bunch of water bottles next to him and every once in a while, he would pour a little on him, gross.  He left a little before me and there was a large wet butt print where he was sitting.  Thats a lot of hairy fat man butt sweat.

Folks, please bring a towel into the sauna to sit on, and wearing a bathing suit wouldn't be a bad idea.
