blocking ports

Hi all, In a network running spanning tree, if there are multiple paths to the root bridge, is it possible for more than one port to be blocked in the network, I was told only one needs to be blocked ?

In theory, any redundant paths will be blocked, else loop potential exists. Tertiary paths to a root bridge are really not good design practices. Do you have this situation?
