How much would you have to be paid to get a tattoo of 2016 presidential hopeful, real estate mogul and reality TV star Donald Trump on your body? Tattoos are, of course, permanent unless you have a lot of money for painful laser removal. You'd ask for a lot right? How about a year's worth of free country music concert tickets? No, right? Well, one man accepted this offer from a local radio station in Arizona and is pretty happy with his decision.
102.5 KNIX's The Ben & Matt Show held a "Trump Stamp" contest with the grand prize winner receiving a year's worth of concerts for free. Any concert, too! The only price is part of your dignity and a lifetime of Donald Trump on his back. Thinking about it though, Trump might be our President, so this tattoo could mean something a bit different a year from now.
38 year-old Travis Gaarder is the "winner" of this contest. He spoke to Billboard about the experience and whether or not it was worth it.
"The only reason why I did it was for the concert tickets. Any of 'em would do for me," he said. "I just like music."
When asked if the tattoo was worth it, he exclaimed "Heck yeah!"
Also, Gaarder explained that attending a rally for the Republican candidate wasn't on his to-do list, even after getting the tattoo.
"I think I might kind of try to stay away from that," he said.
You can check out photos of the tattoo progress and more in a time-lapse video from the station's YouTube page right here:
Though Travis is adamant that the tattoo was worth it, do you think this is a rip-off? Let us know what you think of this story in the comments section below!
