Seahawks Tattoo

[MesquiteHawk]

Also kind-of on thread, I have a memorial tattoo on my right shoulder for my lifelong best friend. I went to an artist recommended by tattooed friends and described what I was thinking. My friend fancied himself a musician, and many times when I went to spend the weekend visiting him in Port Townsend he would teach me a song he wrote and we would get on stage at an open mic night and play it. His tattoo is his initials (JB) turned into a stylized guitar. Above that is a line from the Righteous Brothers song 'Rock and Roll Heaven' "Life is just a one-night stand". I thought it turned out nice, and getting a tattoo feels like dragging a fork across your skin over and over in the same place. I have 4 overall and I keep going back, so it ain't *that* bad!

As far as a Seahawks tat referencing a particular game, I would definitely wait for the outcome! Otherwise you could find yourself in the same shoes as someone with their ex's name tattooed on them.

Also, extreme details in a tat look cool at first, but it gets blurry after like 20 years. I need to the the song quote touched up with white ink to be legible again. So don't get one that's too 'busy'!

Thank you for the advice. I will certainly wait until after the game.

You had a Kawasaki Mach III and survived? I had a Navy buddy in that time frame who had one. Many stories (which mostly included 18YO undeserved confidence, 100+mph through downtown Orlando FL at midnight with absolutely no safety gear, etc) surrounded that bike! With any combination of him or our circle of friends at the controls, and another riding bitch. And usually yelling at the driver to slow down.

Sorry for the highjack, but that took me instantly back.

They didn’t call them the Widow Maker for kicks.
Fastest thing on the road and handled like she it.

I had a KZ900 after that, then a break but bought a new Vmax in 94

I was more worried about the artist being afraid or unwilling to do it because of infringement.

I wouldn't worry about that. Find yourself the best artist you can afford and go from there. There are many different styles and disciplines of tattoos. Classic American, Asian, Some artists only work in black and white etc.. A professional will help give great advise of what will work where.

Great tattoos aren't cheap and cheap tattoos aren't good.

You gotta have mjornir in one hand and Storm Breaker with the other and go for the head!
