Trump Stamp: Man gets tattoo on lower back after losing bet
DAVENPORT, Iowa – Zach Cobert supports Bernie Sanders - but it's President-elect Donald Trump who's leaving the biggest imprint on his life.
Zach settled a bet with a buddy. He promised to get a tattoo of President-elect Donald Trump on his body if President-elect Trump won the election.
In the era of social media, Zach went to a tattoo artist and posted every mark and every drawn wisp of President-elect Donald Trump's hair live on Facebook.
"I'm thinking about my life, how it went wrong. Now I'm getting a Trump stamp," Zach said.
The picture was picked by his Facebook followers. So was the location: on Zach's lower back.
"The stupidest thing I've done for views," Zach said.
"I'm not happy with it," said Jenni Gang, Zach's girlfriend. "I have to look at it forever."
Other people at 3-D Skin Lab had their doubts, but a bet's a bet.
"It's something that I would do, so I can't call it too stupid," said fellow customer Josh.
You can question the sanity, but not the commitment. Zach sat in place for hours as the tattoo took shape. And it's not done yet. He has to return to have it finished.
All this for something he really doesn't want.
"I just wish I was getting a normal tattoo, something I wanted," Zach said.
And it may make him re-think future bets. Well, maybe.
"If I keep losing bets, maybe I'll keep going," Zach said.
