Should Ice Fishing Be and Olympic Sport???

Think about the skill, high tech equipment, discipline, and determination we all share.  We should at least have a "ICE FISHING HALL OF FAME".

Mooter can you get banned for using performance enhancing drugs?!?!? ie I fish better after a 6 pack, is this against the rules?
What about performance inducing drugs and liquids? Or are they required?

Well there are some of us ice fishermen that do not partake in the swilling of alcoholic beverages, so I would have to make it an option.  Or on second thought maybe it should go to the committee.

You get Dq'd when you run out of performance inducing liquids. Last twenty standing move on past the cursory round of qualifying.

Syncronized ice-fishing with performance inducing liquids?

Now that would draw an audiance, and advertisers.
We could find sponsorship easy I bet.
