What Was The Deal With Pats Coach Bill Belichick’s Pre Super Bowl Tshirt?
Wednesday, February 4th, 2015Prior to Sunday’s Super Bowl XLIX, New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick was spotted wearing an interesting shirt. The snake on the back, poised to strike, was somewhat reminiscent of Gadsden’s Don’t Tread On Me symbology but it wasn’t all there.
Turns out, that wasn’t half wrong. The image was from the Dynamis Alliance DTOM Tshirt. The image was created by tattoo artist Joey Nobody and former SEAL and Dynamis frontman Dom Raso is a dyed in the wool Patriots fan. That’s where it came from.
