T is for T-Mobile. And tattoo, apparently.
A 20-year-old Phoenix man looking to get his hands on a free iPhone 8 courtesy of Bellevue, Wash.-based wireless carrier T-Mobile used his arm to sweeten the deal by promising CEO John Legere that he would tattoo the company’s logo “for all to see.”
Philip Harrison tweeted proof that he went for it on Sunday night, saying that he did it for the new $700 phone, but also for the story that would be attached to the magenta “T” permanently etched on his arm.
Legere replied Monday morning with his approval for the stunt, saying “Nice tattoo!!” and “Let’s get you that iPhone!!”
