Fill in the blank: Fans tattooing themselves with images of LeBron are ________ ?

Earlier this week, LeBron James posted this picture to Instagram:

Yep, that's a full back tattoo of LeBron throwing his chalk in the air (an old Nike advertising gimmick) while surrounded by the Larry O'Brien Trophy (NBA championship trophy) and the Maurice Podoloff Trophy (NBA MVP Trophy). To top off the impressive art, Nike's old advertising hook for James, "Witness," is stenciled above the scene.

Then, naturally, above the tattoo are the words "Only God's Love Is Everlasting." 

James said he ran into the guy at his wife's juice bar in Brickell. Riiiiight...

Anyway, I'm fairly certain that the large majority of people in this country (world?) would look at a full back tat of LeBron and be like, WTF? But I'm not judging. Good for that guy. I hope he gets to be on the double-decker bus with LeBron for this summer's victory parade. (That's assuming the Heat three-peats, of course.)

At least the LeBron back tat guy knows his favorite athlete. This next guy...I just don't know. LeBron posted this picture to Instagram on Thursday night...

Someone apparently sent this picture to LeBron. Is it a doctored image? I sure the heck hope not. I mean, what a great tattoo — idols idolizing idols. It just doesn't get any better. Human beings of America, I salute you!
