Nope, this story isn’t related to a Mario & Sonic title. An actual Olympic runner from Puerto Rico is such a Sonic the Hedgehog fan that he has the blue mascot tattooed on his arm. The tattoo has the young hedgehog in front of the Puerto Rican flag.
The man with the tattoo is named Javier Culson, who took home the bronze medal in the 400-meter hurdles at this year’s Olympics. He didn’t just get Sonic because he was a fast character, he is an actual fan. His name on twitter is “Culsonic”, so if your bored give him a shout out.

Awesome! I’m rootin’ for that guy!
Now Sonic has to get a tattoo of Javier Culson.
A guy from Trinidad & Tobago also had a Sonic logo in the 100 metre men hurdles too.
gotta go fast!
