Meet the fresher who got 50 love bites in one night dressed as a baby

A fresher who was nicknamed “Hicky” because he gets so many love bites bagged 50 in one night after a bet with friends.

Pals challenged Mad Matt “Hicky” to get the half-century at Ocean nightclub, after he bragged about how easy it is to get a peck on the neck.

And the Nottingham Trent first year completed the task with consummate ease, leaving his neck a bloody mess.

He told The Tab: “I just literally went up to a group with a friend, explained the challenge and asked if they could help.

“I never forced anyone into doing it though, I just said if you could help it would be great, if not don’t worry and I’d be on my way.”

As well as an impressive quantity of girls, Matt managed to convince a few eager lads to boost his numbers.

The American football player rose to the occasion like blood to the skin – despite spelling his own nickname wrong.

The economics student was challenged by his teammate, Calum Chalmers, after he made a cocky comment about how easy it is to get given a hickie.

Even dressed up as a giant baby, Matt was told he would suffer an “unimaginable” forfeit if he failed.

But heartthrob Hicky appeared to have taken a very laid-back approach to the challenge.

He said: “I knew a couple of people that helped and managed to barter with them to get some of their friends to join in as well. So it wasn’t as hard for the first 15 or so.

“Then others realised people had actually done it so were willing.”

Matt has had very mixed reactions regarding the love bites.

He added: “People have just either laughed or called it brilliant, some people did shout Ebola at me.”

Even dressed as a giant baby, Matt managed the challenge

The ladies man has been in touch with a few of his helpers from Wednesday night to acknowledge their generous assistance.

Unfortunately, the supposedly unimaginable forfeit has been saved for the moment when Matt fails an Ocean challenge.

Matt earned the nickname from a committee member after he turned up to consecutive training sessions with different “shotgun sized love bites” on his neck.

Matt said: “I still don’t think some of the team know my actual name, but oh well.”

The fresher explained: “It’s helped me make a few new friends so can’t be that bad.”

Hicky’s big tip for getting in with the ladies?

“I just think you have to make general conversation with someone and not be a dick really.”
