What is the worst / most inappropriate trophy in great wide world of sports. Prompted by seeing this from a Disney sponsored golf tournament:

I know a lot of the regional bike races have some pretty odd prizes but is there anything worse than bronze Disney characters for your trophy cabinet?

That is massively crap. Was there a cheque for $1,000,000 Selotaped to the back of it though?

I'm doubting whether the Jesus statue is actually presented as a recognition of any kind of sporting success though.

The Paris Roubaix cobble is pretty cool but ironic that something so heavy is awarded to athletes not exactly famous for their upper body development...

Pretty high on the "cool because they're crap" are the trophies for the Legendary Mount Baker Banked Slalom. Spray painted duct tape since 1985, [url= http://lbs.mtbaker.us/index.php/history/honor-roll ]list of winners[/url] reads like a who's who of snowboarding.

Golf on the whole does seem to be the sport that taste forgot!

With regards to the ashes, the little urn itself is almost beside the point of it, it's the while history of how it came to be, and the great tradition of the competition, that makes it probably one of sports most highly prized trophies.

F1 trophies have been largely crap for years too. If you're going to give a trophy, why not make it meaningful!
