About This Item

Olympic Games Logo

This started out with a mission to visit all of the United States cities that have hosted the Olympic games. On its way to Los Angeles, it got a little sidetracked and ended up in Europe. As a result, its mission has been expanded and it is now trying to visit every city in the world that has hosted the Olympics (summer or winter)!

UPDATE: In going over logs for the last known location of this travel bug, it appears that the hosting cache was muggled. So this little bug is most likely lost and gone forever. Maybe it will resurface, but I'll probably start another one in an attempt to complete the original mission. 23K+ miles is not bad for one of my first releases.

Discovered It 9/15/2023 MiriCach discovered it   Visit Log

TL;DR: We don't have the trackable (and feel sorry for you if it means it is still missing), but stumbled upon its discovery code.

The story: I discovered this trackable/coin when I cracked the cache "Msportis Coinlihaus der 2." and then was able to reverse-engineer some Coins/TBs of the owner Msporti as well. By pure chance / luck while testing out possibilities for this I also came across this TB/coin. We hope that it's okay that we discover it, if not, feel free to delete this log. TFTC/TFTT 😉

After going over 23,500 miles, it looks like this dog tag was muggled a couple of years ago. The log for its last known cache shows in the entry immediately following the drop-off of this bug that the cache was gone. Owner (or someone) replaced, but no note was left for my poor lost travel bug... boo-hoo.
