How long can a fan go to pay tribute to the favorite team? There is no such parameter to measure the love of a fan for his beloved team. But what Manoj Nayak has done is truly beyond imagination. To mark the historic final of IPL 2025, when Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) ended their years-long trophy drought, Nayak tattoos all of the trophy-winning players' names on his body—fandom to the next level. 

The die-hard RCB fan shared some of his posts with his new iconic tattoo to show his love for the franchise. In one of his social media posts, Nayak mentioned that Royal Challengers Bengaluru is not only a team, it is an emotion. He mentioned both winning the IPL and the Women's Premier League (WPL) by RCB. 

"RCB isn’t just a team; it’s a belief, a fire that burns in every heart wearing red, bold, and gold. 9 hours of hell, finally WPL/IPL. This is for you, RCB. "Your biggest supporter, Manoj," he wrote in a social media post.

Manoj dedicated a separate postfor the legend Virat Kohli, who has been with the team from the inaugural season of the league. The fan showed gratitude to Kohli, recalling the battle for 18 long years for the trophy. 

The superfan of RCB overwhelmed for his iconic tatto

"This is our trophy in 18 years; keep celebrating and don’t stop. We have waited for so long. "Love you RCB, love you Virat Kohli," he wrote. 

The IPL 2025 final was very close between RCB and Punjab Kings (PBKS). RCB won the final by only 6 runs. Shashank Singh emerged as the biggest threat of the RCB bowlers during the second innings. But, it was their night to shine; RCB, under Rajat Patidar's leadership and powered by Virat Kohli, claimed the long-awaited IPL title.
