Just in case: Kentucky fan has backup plan for 40-0 tattoo celebrating championship
A new man will carry the torch for ill-advised but fearless sports fans to get tattoos celebrating a yet-to-be-determined championship.
Now presenting, Rock Wright's leg piece commemorating the undefeated 2015 NCAA National Champion University of Kentucky Wildcats!
If UK somehow loses (he denies that possibility), there is a plan to make the tattoo still accurate. @WLKY #WLKYRTFF pic.twitter.com/KUySNmbSFZ

Meet Rock Wright: How sure is he UK will go 40-0 & become National Champs? He got a tattoo saying so #WLKYRTFF @WLKY pic.twitter.com/kV7tAT66xv

Indeed this gentleman has made a much less risky proposition than the Kentucky fan last year who pre-emptively got inked with a UK National Championship tattoo. And then the young Wildcats took the tourney by storm as a No. 8 seed, ultimately falling in the title game to No. 7 Connecticut.
That guy, Tyler Black, decided to keep the tattoo intact, despite the loss. But Mr. Wright, although he's certain of a 40-0 season, has contemplated a couple slight alterations in the event that the Wildcats do fall (thanks to the Anthony Davis-led 2012 National Champs):
@KatzM @WLKY He'll change the 5 to a 2 and the 40-0 to a bolder/bigger 38-2.

Does a backup plan detract from the brashness of it? Or is it smart?
