Ahhh, such a romantic. Thats probably your avatar on that dating site you joined, right?
An ISU tat might not be bad as far as tats go, I've never decided to try one.
Call me old fashioned, but if a tat doesn't have flames or a skull it might as well be a tramp stamp on your lower back.
About 3 years ago I went back to Ames for a buddy's graduation party. One friend there made the announcement that if we rounded up enough money he would get a tattoo of Chris Mullin (Golden State Warriors, original Dream Team) on his arm. Sure enough we gathered the money and he got the tattoo of him on his left arm. I have been trying to track down an old picture of the tattoo, but haven't found it yet. But believe me, it is a gem.
You can not go wrong with a monkey?
Ummm am I the only one who finds this very creative and disturbing at the same time.....
I have a cubs tattoo on my right shoulder blade and that freakin thing hurt like a ***** when I got it done....call me a sissy it's ok
If we go to a BSC bowl and elite 8 in the same year, I would consider getting ISU tatted on my man thing in big letters.
Your not a sissy. My brother in law was almost in tears when he got his on the shoulder blade. Ripvdub got pics of his bros face on the camera phone. Priceless.
That would be my next question: where? I'm in M'town so the Ames/Des Moines area would be easiest but I'd be willing to travel a bit more if it meant the difference between a really good tat and a bad one.
Thanks for all the suggestions so far.
Yes, anywhere you have bone closer to the skin than muscle, it will hurt worse. Shoulder blades, ribs, and feet are good examples of where getting ink will hurt.
I have 3 tattoos: on my back (between the shoulder blades, but slightly overlapping them), on my left upper arm, and on my right upper arm. The only one that really hurt was my right upper arm, as it was on my tricep and near the tender spot of my arm pit.
If you are a little unsure about your tattoo, some suggestions:
- The larger the better. No point in going back when you realize you should have gone large in the first place.
- Make sure it is in a very visible location, like your forearm, neck or face. Why get one if no one can see it?
- Don't pick it out ahead of time. The best decisions are made spur of the moment. Drink heavily before going, it will help open up your creative side.
