Dolphins fans and awesome tat/detachable body part ink seem to go together like pants and legs. Every team has crazy fans, but this trend seems to go beyond the simple insanity that’s commonplace among those crazies. The hypothesis I’ve arrived at is that Dolphins fans cling to the one uniting symbol of pride they have left: the team’s perfect season.
Yesterday we met a man who’s taken that just a little too far. As in stomach-covering tattoo too far. Also, I like this man.
He first surfaced during the CBS broadcast as he stood amid a sea of bright orange seats in Miami while watching his beloved Dolphins get pasted by the Titans 37-3. You know, the same Titans team that lost 51-20 last week.
But then later in the evening (or maybe this is an old picture…don’t know, don’t care, because awesomeness takes priority over time sensitivity) this man who likely wasn’t born yet in 1972 had a reason to celebrate. The Falcons’ loss to the Saints guaranteed that yet another year would tick by with the ’72 Dolphins still the only team to have a perfect season.
That’s when this happened: (via the Sports Hernia)
Give me your life, bro. Give me your life.
Your article is wrong they aren’t the only defeated team since the merger.You forget about the Pats going 16-0?
The Patriots were undefeated in the regular season, while the Dolphins won the Super Bowl.
Dude you are a turd he meant for the whole season including post season
No, the Pats went 18-1.
Thats true but thats the regular season the dolphins won it all in 72. The pats lost the superbowl they actually went 18-1
The Pats also did NOT win the superbowl. they meant undefeated through the entire season (post season and superbowl)
Mark must be a Patriots fan which us why he knows nothing about football.
Actually 19-1. Nice effort though.
Nah, actually, it was 18-1. Nice effort though, John.
No, it was 18-1… please don’t ever speak again. Nice effort though.
No. Their article is absolutely correct. The Dolphins are the only team since the merger to finish the regular season and postseason undefeated. They finished 17-0 in 1972. The Patriots finished the regular season 16-0, but finished the postseason with an 18-1 record after losing to the New York Giants in Super Bowl 42. Do your research before you correct someone like that.
By the way Adam it’s ‘undefeated’, not ‘defeated’, that would suggest the lost every game.
I am super curious as to what the guy’s tat is in the back right side of this photo. It is clearly the circle that is around the Dolphin of the team’s logo in team colors, but what is in it? Is that a gun? A hand cheese slicer? A paint roller?
The state of Florida?
I cropped this to zoom in on just the awesome that is our main subject’s tat. But after studying the unedited version intensely, it looks like a gun that’s wearing a Dolphins helmet.
This just keeps getting better.
Lose the gay nipple rings dude!
dolphins aren’t fish, they’re mammals.. juss sayin’
i have no words, whats with the chick too?
unforgotten? Is that even a word? Shouldn’t it be never forgotten? What D-bag
You obviously didn’t make it very far in school. “Unforgotten” is a legitimate word.
It’s amazing how people can be anything they want to on the internet, yet most of you choose to be stupid! The Pats were not undefeated, they were 18-1, not 19-1, not defeated… what’s really amazing, is that nobody noticed that this guys tattoo is a huge FAIL. There is no such word as ‘unforgotten’, repeat this winners ” I AM SOFA KING, WE TODD DID”
Go buy a dictionary. “Unforgotten” is in fact a word.
