Guy With Cupping Marks Hopes Everyone Wonders If He’s Some Kind Of Athlete

Local finance deal maker, Jim Coffeey, has long pined to attract some of the athletic recognition that his friends did, but with a naturally unathletic physique it was never destined to be his path. 

Desperate to at least draw some attention to himself, a short legged Coffeey visited an alternative Chinese therapist to try out cupping. 

Since then, he’s been wearing loose singlets as much as possible, in hopes of attracting some intrigue, he explains. 

“People definitely look at you more. And I can’t know for sure, but I bet they’re wondering if I am some kind of athlete.” 

“No one has asked me about it yet, but it’s just a matter of time.” 

It’s understood that Coffeey got the idea after seeing the fuss made about Michael Phelps in the 2016 Rio Olympics. 

Coffeey’s friends say that this is not the first time he’s tried to trick people into thinking he’s some kind of athlete. Earlier this year he apparently got on the illegal peptide trend, however he stopped taking them after his supplier, Dr. Zak disappeared. 

More to come.
