Couples who celebrate wedding anniversarys sometimes take a vacation, or just go out to dinner. But not Bubba Watson.

He got a tattoo.

As Jason Sobel hilariously explains:

Watson explained that although he owns two wedding bands, he doesn't like the feeling of wearing one while playing golf, so he got a tattoo of his wife's name, Angie, on his left ring finger.

"I was like, 'I'm going to get a tattoo,'" he said. "She’s like, 'No you're not.' So I did. It was a $60 anniversary present."

Watson followed up with the overriding reason: "I think tattoos are cool when I see them on other people, but I don't personally like tattoos. But this is about my wife and showing her I care about her," he said.

We certainly wish Bubba and Angie Watson a long and happy marriage. Just don't ask us to get a tattoo of our own.
