Full Tilt Gold FTOPS Avatar

I saw this guy when playing today today, I asked him how he got it but he didn't speak, anyone else seen this or know how he got it ?

99% sure that he won the FTOPS event.

According to the Full Tilt web site:

"Players who win an FTOPS X event will receive the jacket, along with a gold FTOPS jersey and a coveted gold jersey avatar for use on Full Tilt Poker"


So I would have to agree that he was a prior FTOPS event winner
