If you were one of the 57.9 million Americans who watched Sunday evening’s NFC Championship Game between the Minnesota Vikings and the New Orleans Saints, you might have caught the above shot of Saints cornerback Tracy Porter reppin’ Pac-Man. Bitmob grabbed a screen capture of what they called “quite possibly the greatest haircut in history” -- in case you can’t tell what Porter has carved into his hair, you can check out a blown-up image in the gallery.

Yep, those are the four Pac-Man ghosts: Blinky, Pinky, Inky, and Clyde. I wonder if Porter’s barber is a gamer, or if Porter just handed him a picture of the ghosts and told him to start buzzing. Either way, the result may have given Porter an edge in the game: he picked off Vikings quarterback Brett Favre to stop a potential game-winning drive; that interception essentially sent the game into overtime, where the Saints won the game, and a berth in Super Bowl XLIV, with a field goal.

Have any of you ever tried out a videogame-themed ’do?

Best. Haircut. Ever. [Bitmob]

Isn't the other guy beside him playing with a PSP?

Thats just so awesome. I wonder who did that for him? I'm assuming it wasn't his mum.

SPOOOORTSS... Nah, just kidding, that match was f*cking awesome. Go Saints.

Colts all the way!

Jacory Harris, the Quaterback this year for the University of Miami beat him to it during the Champ Sports Bowl, albeit with a Super Mario Bros star etched into his head. Really.

@zeag...that would be funny but i think he's on his cell. The NFL has banned text messaging and twitter use by players during the game. He's just trying to hide his texting from everyone.

And yet they proceeded to lose terribly. Guess it didn't work.

GAUX SAINTS!!!! Kick the shit out of those yellowbellies.

Darren Nakamura

Yes, it was definitely the power of videogames that won it for the Saints.

Artemus

Ha ha! That's fucking awesome! Go Saints! Only because I could care less about the Colts.

clearly you have video games on the brain, he isn't playing a PSP or texting or anything like that, his hands are just folded
