“If the Section wins, we tattoo our mountains“. It looks like a bet that some have been able to make, more or less certain of sticking to it. Rémi, Dylan and Valentin, them, had it written on a sign to attend the Paloise Section match against Toulon, on December 4th. The message was picked up by the broadcaster of the meeting, the trio could not back down. The Section Paloise only had a draw against the Var (16-16), but the three friends still went to the tattoo artist! They came out with, each on the left calf, the “Jean-Pierre”, the Pic du Midi d’Ossau now engraved in their flesh.

The Pic du Midi d’Ossau is the emblem of Section Paloise, present on the club crest, and featured on the team jerseys. “We met six months ago at rugby in Jurançon, since then, bit by bit and in the third half, we became friends and we meet almost every weekend at the Hameau, rewind the three friends aged 22 to 24, the first time we thought we were going to wear kilts, it had worked out well, so the next time Dylan prepared the box and the magic worked!The rest is therefore, even if the Section did not win, but above all because they wanted to, a visit to the tattoo parlor on rue Taylor, in Pau, three weeks after the match. After barely an hour of work, they immortalized their new tattoos with a photo.
“We all live in Pau, we support the Section, the Pic is emblematic, and the team is having a rather good season, it’s cool!“, also say the three friends who appreciate to highlight the club. During the match of the XV of France under 20 years old in Pau, Vincent Pinto did not go as far as tattooing, but had drawn with the clipper on his scalp the famous “Jean-Pierre”, a fantasy brought up to date by the players of the Section, during the SuperSevens final last November at the Arena in Nanterre. “The Pic d’Ossau always ahead“, also says the Honhada, the anthem of the Section, Dylan, Valentin and Rémi will walk them from now on always with.
