Crazy Met fan body ink: http://www.checkoutmyink.com/tattoos/ci ... ets-tribal

Yeah I don't get it.

It's an interesting look. If the Mets offered t-shirts with that logo, I think it would sell fairly well.

Nick Maggio likes his logo with the classick blue skyline over the black. <img src="http://brooklynmetfan.com/images/tattoos/1.jpg"> Scott Breslove from Belleville like baserunning Mister over the batting or pitching version. <img src="http://brooklynmetfan.com/images/tattoos/2.jpg"> Gotta agree with both, at least to the point where they strap me in the chair. Josh Steinberg, out on the town before his tatt has healed, goes for the outlined blue insignia. Ugh. <img src="http://brooklynmetfan.com/images/tattoos/3.jpg"> Steve from Newburgh goes for orange with a slight blue border to contain it, somehow bursting through a crack. An American crack. <img src="http://brooklynmetfan.com/images/tattoos/4.jpg"> Jim C from Bay Ridge doesn't color in his Mister. <img src="http://brooklynmetfan.com/images/tattoos/7.jpg"> Jim C. also annoys Vic Sage by loving the '55 Dodgers on his other arm. <img src="http://brooklynmetfan.com/images/tattoos/8.jpg"> Deltoid or butt cheek? <img src="http://brooklynmetfan.com/images/tattoos/56.jpg"> Freak sleeve: <img src="http://brooklynmetfan.com/images/tattoos/259.jpg"> All this and more from <a href="http://brooklynmetfan.com/tattoo.php">Brooklyn Met fan</a>.

<img src="http://brooklynmetfan.com/images/tattoos/4.jpg"> Was that taken in the mirror? Or was the tattooist the same guy who was the fictional Obama supporter who attacked the girl with the McCain bumper sticker?

<img src="http://brooklynmetfan.com/images/tattoos/2.jpg"> I would never get a tattoo, but if I were to get a Mets related tattoo, I like this one the best. (I'd make it smaller, though.) Understated is better. This one is too over the top: <img src="http://brooklynmetfan.com/images/tattoos/259.jpg"> And this one is a little too precious: <img src="http://brooklynmetfan.com/images/tattoos/56.jpg"> Hopefully that's on a female fan.

I hate when they attack girls with bumper stickers. The light in the photo tells me a mirror was used.

Benjamin Grimm Nov 17 2008 09:03 AM

If I wanted to take a photo of the back of my shoulder, I'd hold the camera behind me and click. I wouldn't stand with my back to a mirror and then take a picture, over my shoulder, of the mirror. But diff'rent strokes for diff'rent folks, I guess.

There was a time in my twenties that I wanted to get a tattoo , never did and am sure glad I didn't.

Vic Sage Nov 17 2008 09:42 AM ]Jim C. also annoys Vic Sage by loving the '55 Dodgers on his other arm. ritual scarring annoys me on principle, but why do you think this would annoy me in particular? Edgy DC Nov 17 2008 09:49 AM Because you advocated in another thread treating the Dodgers not as Met forebears but as Met enemies. Didn't you? John Cougar Lunchbucket Nov 17 2008 09:55 AM This is like, why we deserve a punishing recession. Vic Sage Nov 17 2008 10:02 AM ]Because you advocated in another thread treating the Dodgers not as Met forebears but as Met enemies. Didn't you? No, i rejected your assertion that anyone offended by the Jackie Robinson Rotunda, with its "42" tribute, was making a real "logical stretch". While i have no feelings about it one way or the other, I offered as an example, not myself but my parents and other Mets fans of their generation who were abandoned by the Dodgers and would, therefore, not necessarily enjoy having their new stadium built as a tribute to their long-hated Dodgers , and that these feelings were not at all illogical. At which point you accused my of arguing for sport, so i stopped participating in that thread. There is no doubt as to the role of the Dodgers as progenitors of the Mets. Anyone who wants to use their body as a billboard for such an assertion runs no risk of rebuke from me... at least not on those grounds. Edgy DC Nov 17 2008 10:24 AM You think the above is a valid argument, though not yours. Got it. But what I called illogical wasn't so broad, but rather "to link Robinson's legacy an adversarial relationship to the Mets."
