TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) — A 22-year-old Port Richey man may have just won the title 'Florida Man' for life.

The 22-year-old is easily identified by the tattoo of the state of Florida on his glabella, the area of your forehead, between your eyebrows and above your nose.

Leatham was charged with misuse of the 911 system as well as possession of marijuana.

Leatham was released from Pasco County Jailon a $300 bond.
