A die-hard Baltimore Ravens fan is taking his loyalty to the next level by tattooing his body with every win the team secures, all in the hopes of a Super Bowl victory. Nic Cullison, a passionate Ravens supporter from Baltimore, made an unforgettable promise back in September 2021: he vowed to get a new tattoo every time the Ravens won a game, continuing this tattoo journey until the team clinched the prestigious Lombardi trophy. What began as a fun and light-hearted challenge has now turned into a commitment that has seen Cullison inked with 45 tattoos to date, with more expected if the Ravens keep winning, he told ABC affiliate WMAR.
Cullison’s tattoo tradition has been ongoing for over two years, with each new design serving as a permanent reminder of the Ravens’ triumphs throughout the seasons. His collection has grown alongside the team’s victories, and he’s proudly added a new piece after each game the Ravens win. His tattoos range from team logos to images and symbols that reflect his dedication to the Ravens and their players. His most recent tattoo, which was added just last Saturday, holds special significance for him. It is the signature of Ravens tight end Mark Andrews, which was tattooed onto his leg.
What makes this tattoo even more unique is that it wasn’t done by just any tattoo artist—Cullison’s wife, Naomi, who has been tattooing him with every design in his collection, was the one who tattooed the signature onto his leg. The couple shared a special moment while sitting on the sidelines during the Ravens’ victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on January 11. The experience added even more meaning to the tattoo, as it was done in the heat of the game and cemented their bond as both partners and artists in this ongoing tattoo adventure.
Cullison’s tattoos have become a personal, permanent record of his unwavering support for the Ravens, and his collection is now a mix of commemorative designs tied to each victory. His dedication to the team and the tattoo tradition has made headlines, and he’s garnered attention for his unique way of celebrating each win. “It’s been awesome,” he said, reflecting on his journey so far. “Each tattoo has a story, and it’s something I’ll carry with me for the rest of my life.”
As the Ravens continue their push toward the playoffs, Cullison remains hopeful that his tattoos will culminate in a Super Bowl victory. For him, each tattoo represents not just a game won, but also his loyalty to the team and his excitement for the future. If the Ravens win the Super Bowl, Cullison is already prepared for the ultimate tattoo—one that will mark the pinnacle of his journey and his unshakeable dedication to the team. Until then, he’s committed to adding more ink as the wins continue to roll in.
In the meantime, Cullison and his wife Naomi are enjoying the special moments they’ve shared through this tattoo project. For Naomi, it’s not just about the art—it’s about supporting her husband’s passion for the team and contributing to a unique part of his life story. “It’s something we’ll always remember,” she said, smiling. “It’s more than just tattoos; it’s about celebrating his love for the Ravens and the journey we’re on together.”
With the Ravens’ eyes set on the Super Bowl, Cullison’s tattoo saga is far from over, and he’s ready to continue adding ink to his body in celebration of every win—and hopefully, a victory that will make his tattoo collection complete.
