LOL!  There's some kind of really slick remark I should make right now, but it's just not coming to me.  DARN!
 
BTW, could you imagine Geocaching as an Olympic sport anyway... imagine the commentators..
Commentator Jim: "CacheLess slowly approaches the cache.... he looks confused... "
Commentator Bob: "WAIT!  He looked right at it... I think he's hot on the trail!"
Commentator Jim: "OOHHHH NO Bob!  He walked the other way"
Commentator Bob: "Yeah Jim, that's gonna hurt his standings."
Commentator Jim: "Wait Bob, he's going for the encrypted clue."
Commentator Bob: "Oh NO!  He'll take a penalty point if he does that!"
 
LOL

I sure hope you're wrong.  My face is much too handsome to mess up over something so silly.  LOL

Oops, didn't realize humor needed to be based completely on fact.  I'll work on that.

I think that's an awesome idea, but wouldn't the financial reward convert the finder into a professional geocacher thereby knocking them out of a chance to compete when geocaching becomes an Olympic sport?  ;-)
 
Are you thinking that Jim Thorpe and Jesse Owens are still competing in the Olympics? 
 
Professionals have been competing in the Olympics since 1992.  The old amateur rules are long gone.
