Patriots Fan Gets Helmet Tattooed On Head

[edbermac]

LACONIA, N.H. -- New England Patriots fans have been buying hats or shirts to show off their team pride, but one fan is getting something a bit more permanent -- a helmet tattooed on his head. Victor Thompson is taking his Patriots pride seriously with the extensive tattoo, reported Manchester, N.H., TV station WMUR.

"It just popped into my head that I wanted it to look like Tom Brady's helmet," Thompson said.

House of Tattoo artist Gary Laroche has been working on the tattoo. Thompson had one side done on New Year's Eve. "He's kind of off the wall," Laroche said.

Thompson's plan is to get every bit of the helmet down to the smallest detail, including the dot that marks Brady's helmet as having a microphone.

Thompson said he is hoping the Pats win the Super Bowl. If they do, he will get the Lombardi Trophy tattooed on his head, along with the years the team has won it all.

3. I'm as good a fan as any, but I don't think I could do that!

Not sure I would handle a tattoo well anyway. I dislike both pain and permanence!
