Now This Is Dedication

  Podcasts are amazing things.  You record them in your basement or bedroom, edit them, and put them on iTunes, but it's a pretty abstract process.  It's sometimes difficult to imagine that gamers across the world will download your podcast and listen to what you have to say, but every once in a while you get a reminder of your reach.  You also get a reminder of the dedication of Nintendo fans.    


This brings us to RFN listener Marine Sgt. Anthony Foster, currently stationed in Okinawa, Japan.  Describing himself as a "30-year-old Nintendo fanboy that's been gaming since age four to now", Sgt. Foster takes his Nintendo gaming seriously.  Don't believe him?  Just check out his tattoo.    


Tattoo One

   


Tattoo Two

   


Tattoo Three

   


   


Well done, Mr. Foster.  You're a man that exemplifies not only dedication to your country, but dedication to all things Nintendo as well.  OORAH!

Pretty cool. I don't plan on ever getting a tattoo, but that would be a nice one to get.

Sgt. Foster, it is a shame I didn't get the chance to meet you in Okinawa.

Who would thought that the person in the story would show up. Very nice tattoo. Sure go ahead and post the Akuma one.
Maxi is dead. I killed him and took his posts and changed genders.

I'm happy with thinking pokepal148 is just eating a stick of butter. It seems about right for him. I don't need no stinking facts.

EASYCURE: I remember thinking(don't ask me why) this was a blond haired, blue eyed, chiseled athlete. Like he looked like Seigfried before he became Nightmare.
