Lolla tattoo sightings

So, it was great to see the multitude of Stickman tats all over Grant Park all week; especially Sunday. But I saw some great work over the weekend? And got a comment or two about mine. Any one else notice any good ones?
My faves are still the Riot Act art (the king and queen thingies) and some dude back by the rail had a nice green disease skull on his forearm. Now I'm ready to plan the next. Hmm...

    didnt see any real standout tats, but it definitely inspired me to go get another done sometime soon

    I saw a bald guy who had an avocado painted on the top of his head. It was pretty hard core. :)

    yes i was wearing a tank top that covered up some of it. i had so many people ask me if they could see it. i knew it was half visible so i didnt mind. i'm glad you like it. thanks for commenting.

    Yeah, tons and tons of stickmen. It was kinda surreal.

    One chick had what had obviously been a stickman at some point, but had additional work done so that it appeared as two faces looking at each other, with the stickman arm and leg on each side making up the front of each face. It was pretty neat.

    saw some dude with the surf board tat and it was done really big and well in the middle of his back.

    i on the otherhand refrained in my younger days from getting the stickman, and i am glad i did. i recently got the words "state of love and trust" on my wrist and i like it alot.
    one love

    respect

    You shouldnt say things to make people feel bad about their stickman tats. Someday the surfboard ones may seem overdone to people too, but you know what?? We got them because we are dedicated fans and I, personally, am VERY proud of my stickman. I do plan to add to it somehow to give it some more character someday, but even until then, I love it.

    Agreed, I also have a stickman tattoo which was done in 1992. So, yes many people may have them now but back then.....not so much! Proud to have mine and have been since the day I got him. He has been happily standing on my ankle for 16 years.
