Female Rays Fans Getting Mohawks Too...Down There

That's right, for women out there who want to get in on the "Rayhawk" craze that is sweeping all of Tampa Bay in support of their Rays playoff run, there is a way to show their support...a little more discretely...and much to the joy of their significant others. The Rayhawk bikini wax has become a popular way for women to show their team support:

Michelle Foster of Skin Deep Spatique in St. Petersburg says she was inspired by her son's Mohawk, "I stopped and thought about it a minute, and thought, well now everyone can have one!"

But, it's not exactly pain-friendly. Team pride comes with a little sacrifice.

Women wince. They cry. They even scream.

It's a bit of a shock to the system as hot wax is spread onto the skin with a spatula, while an aesthetician stands by with a white piece of cloth, ready to rip off the wax. When all is said and done, women are left with a female Rayhawk.

Michelle says the response has been crazy. She chuckled and told us, "It's fun. Now us ladies have a way of participating."

It seems to be making a lot of men happy, Michelle says, as women come home with what she calls a big "surprise."

I, for one, hope people take notice of this trend here in DC. With the Redskins starting out 4-1, I think all of us men should shave our heads bald to support our team. Women...you may shave whatever you want accordingly. Oh yes.

Isn't this just what we dudes commonly refer to as a "landing strip?"

Landing strip or brazilian. Perhaps this has a bit more hair like a tuft on top than the barely there mo'.

So, based on this article, are we Boston fans to assume all Tampa Rays female fans are incredibly hairy at "home plate"??

good thing most of the guys on the Rays are too young for a playoff beard.
