Grand Prize

I've won a few trophies in my life. Not that many. But I've found that most of them have some figure on top representing what the trophy is for. Sometimes it's an athlete like a skier, or a dude bowling perhaps. Sometimes it has a cup, vase or bowl on it, presumably representing achievement in the field of flower growing or general liquid collection.

I think the best trophy you could win would have, on top of it, a smaller version of the same trophy atop which it rests. Thereby, that smaller trophy would necessarily have atop it an even smaller version of itself, and that even smaller trophy would have a still more smaller trophy at its top. And so on. Forever.

What would such a trophy be awarded for? You'd think it would be for trophy-making, but you'd be wrong.
