Rotherham Man In Penis Tattoo Cock Up
2017-01-13
A Rotherham man says he has been left embarrassed and humiliated after a drunken bet outside a town centre tattoo parlour left him with less than he bargained for.
Mick Dixon. 22, from East Dene has often joked about the size of his manhood, and as he passed The Inkredible Tattoo Studio on Wellgate with a group of mates last Saturday afternoon, he bragged that he could ‘have the name of that famous Welsh railway station tattooed down the length of it. ‘ Everyone laughed, and best mate, Dave Short, bet him £200 that he couldn’t. Mick took the bet and went in to Inkredible to ask tattooist, Nathan Ball, if it could be done. After looking at what he’d got to work with, Nathan said he could do it. Mick takes up the story:
“I dropped me kecks and laid on the couch. It was sodding painful I can tell you – like, well like someone sticking needles in your knob – but half an hour later, Nathan said he’d finished and put some light bandage over my todger to mop up the blood. I paid him and met up with my mates in The Effingham Arms. It was still smarting and I didn’t want to get it out, but Dave was having a right go saying I hadn’t got it done, so I decided to lob it out there and then to show him. They were all pissing ‘emselves and at first I thought it was because I’d got me old lad out in the pub. But it wasn’t that”
When Mick looked down, he was devastated by the sight that greeted him. “I know I should have been more specific “ he told us “but I didn’t know how to say it. I asked Nathan for ‘that famous Welsh railway station’ and he seemed to know what I meant. How many famous Welsh railway stations are there?”
Tattooist Nathan Ball was unapologetic when we caught up with him. “It’s the only Welsh railway station I know.” he said “I used to go there on my holidays as a kid. If he wanted something else he should have said so, but to be honest, I was running out of space with Rhyl.”
To add insult to injury, best mate Dave is refusing to pay out on the bet and Mick’s girlfriend has taken to calling him Stubby. “I’ll never live it down,” said a clearly still embarrassed Mick “People keep pretending to cough and shout ‘Rhyl’ at me in the street. It’s a living nightmare.”
