tattoo's

So were all big cubs fans here...anyone have a cubs tattoo or plan on getting one?  I am going to be getting one here soon, but i am not sure exactly what i want to do with it yet.  A guy i work with has a cubs "C" on his arm and i is going to add the ivy and have the 400 bricks on it too.  but i was just wondering who has one of what and where.  Pics are always great too.

I dont have one

My goal in the future was to get 1 tattoo (hopefully) I simply wanted it to be the date the Cubs won the WS and nothing else. Hopefully I will be enduring that pain soon

At the end of the summer

I am getting the Wrigley Field Marquee on my right calf, and I am debating on getting the scoreboard on my left calf

No picture to share but....

....my crazy “Uncle”(no blood relation) lives in Lombard (i think he still does anyway) and the last time I saw him he had just completed his Chicago Sports Tattoo Shrine. He had just gotten the last of four tattoos. There is one on each side of each of his ankles. Cubs, Bulls, Blackhawks and Bears logos. I love my sports teams but I am not sure if I could go that far.

Nothing against tattoos….I am planning on getting one soon, just dont think i could do a sports team. I am actually getting my Family Cress on my back left shoulder behind my heart.

Go Cubbies!!!!!!!!

I have..

The Cubs logo (the “normal” one on the front of the Home jersey) on my right ankle minus the blue circle. It only took like 6 minutes for them to do but its not something I would do again (unless maybe to add the year a WS title would take place in under it, otherwise no more!).

I like this guy's tattoo..

but I would leave the Chicago part off…

I've always wanted to get ...

The image of the Bears Head patch from the mid-80’s teams on my left arm, right about where the patch would be on a jersey. Really falling in love with the Cubs during the 80’s I’ve always loved the look. I’ve been waiting for some shoulder surgery before getting it. Just got the surgery a few months ago … so hopefully this year I’ll get that tattoo.

by NorthSide87 on Apr 29, 2008 12:08 PM CDT reply actions  

I love the bears head patch

I hate that crawling cub logo they have now, it looks like a 12 year old drew it. I wish they would go back to the original

right now...

i have 2 tats that i really like right now..sorry no pics on this computer cause i am at work but one on each arm and i kinda wish i did not get them on each(just for the room issue) cause i am not going below the elbows or anywhere that if i were wearing a t shirt and jeans you could see (with the exception of the calf) so with that being said i have a four leaf clover on my right arm and a lepercon sitting on a keg on my left arm (yes i am irish) but i do want to get a cubs tat on my calf i think…or maybe my back. I was thinking the cubs “C” with “Bleed” on top and “cubbie blue” below kinda wraping around it and have it look like someone cut it fresh with a knife…just a thought

I've got

one tat:

I’ve had it five years now, and would get another…

the Cubs logo on the back of my right shoulder, with my daughters foot prints on the left…the two things nearest and dearest!

I thiink there

is a general rule about thattoos that says no names or teams. But if you are gonna get team ink it might as well be the Cubs.

I have...

The “C” on my right calf. If I get to see a Cubs World Series title in my lifetime, I’ll get the trophy added. :)

I bleed blue... and red, but that's not my fault. I didn't get to choose that one.

by BabeRuthPose on Apr 29, 2008 4:05 PM CDT reply actions  

The only

baseball one I have is baseball seams wrapping around my arm. But I woudln’t mind a Comissioners Trophy tatted up someday…

Its funny, you spend most of your life gripping a baseball. And in the end, its almost always the other way around.

Seams..

I like that….much cooler than the the barbed wire thing…

tattoos

My plan is a Cubs C logo when they go to the series. My high school students are all cheering for the Cubs this year, because they want to see me get a tat.
