Screen shot 2011 03 14 at 11.33.54 PM 309x177 VIDEO: Hipster at SXSW gets companys logo tattooed for free iPadSouth by Southwest is currently closing down its tech hipster shop (the music hipster shop gets rolling FULL steam soon), but there are already tales of branding, social media and iPads emerging.

For instance, the video below.

In this video, a company named Bo.lt offers up a free iPad 2 to anyone willing to have the company’s logo (see: right) tattooed on their body.

After several unsuccessful tries, the guys at Bo.lt eventually get some sucker willing to put the logo in giant ink form on his body.

It’s pretty ridiculous, since an iPad is worth like $500 and having an elephant with a lightning bolt coming out of his nose tattooed on your body should actually be a finable offense it’s so terrible.

Heavy warning for NSFW language — as well as utter stupidity — below.

What'd you think of this?
