Man to receive subs for life thanks to his branded tattoo

Subway is giving out free sandwiches for life to a Colorado man who got a footlong tattoo of its new “Subway Series” logo across his back.

James Kunz of Fort Collins went under the needle and got a 12″ by 12″ tattoo featuring Subway’s latest promotion, earning him the privilege of being able to walk into any Subway shop and order a free sub for the rest of his life.

Here’s how it worked, ‘A 2-inch square tattoo nets free subs for a month, and a 3-inch square tattoo on a person’s shoulder blade, forearm or calf nets them free subs for a year. In order to get subs for life, participants must get a tattoo Subway calls “The Footlong,” a 12- by 12-inch tattoo to be permanently inked onto their sternum or back. Footlong? More like foot-long and foot-high.’

The sandwich chain also gave eight other loyal customers free subs for a year after they received a 3″ by 3″ tattoo showing the same logo.

The lucky fans were inked by DJ Tambe, the two-time winner of “Master Champion,” the tattoo artist reality television series.

About Subway

Subway is an American multi-national fast food restaurant franchise that primarily sells submarine sandwiches (subs), wraps, salads and beverages.

Subway was founded by 17-year-old Fred DeLuca and financed by Peter Buck in 1965 as Pete’s Super Submarines] in Bridgeport, Connecticut. The restaurant was renamed Subway three years later, and a franchise operation began in 1974 with a second restaurant in Wallingford, Connecticut.[8] Since then, it has expanded to become a global franchise.

Subway serves an array of topping choices, allowing the customer to choose which toppings are included in their sandwich. The longtime Subway slogan, “Eat Fresh”, is intended to indicate the fresh ingredients that are used in their sandwiches.
