40 of My Favorite Memories – Vol 7 Brantley Gilbert and My Twinkie Tattoo [PICTURES/VIDEO]
One of my favorite memories over the years is without a doubt Brantley Gilbert and my Twinkie tattoo. I love my tattoos and have a few very cool ones and one that is just plain odd...that would be my Twinkie. I lost a Twinkie eating contest years ago and the loser had to get a tattoo of a Twinkie on their body. I lost and got the ink to prove it. Shortly after getting the tat, we won a CMA award and headed to Nashville for the festivities. One of the events was a Brantley Gilbert listening party. I got to hang with Brantley and we started talking about tattoos. I told him I had one he had to see. He rolled up my sleeve and he started to laugh very loudly as you see below.
Yes, he laughed for a long time over that one and to this day if he sees me, he calls me "Twinkie". I will always have that moment of bonding over my goofy tattoo with Brantley and I will forever remember that laugh.
Here is the video of the tattoo being done on the air by my tattoo artist Jaime Gutierrez. Moral of the story...never bet ink.
