Friday the 13th Tattoos

Going to get tattooed today for Friday the 13th. Is this a thing everywhere or just in the states?

Dunno yet! The way it works is artists draw special sheets of flash for Friday the 13th. So you pick from the sheets of pre-drawn tattoos when you get there. Headed down now!

I don't even think this is a thing "in the States." This may just be a you thing!

I have a consult/draw-a-thon on Sunday for some flowers to fill out my 3/4 sleeve. I also got married on Friday the 13th. :shrug:

I stand corrected! While walking to dinner, we walked past my local shop. Huge line out the door! I had to log onto Tapatalk to issue my correction.

Friday the 13th Tattoos

Never had one, either on 13F or any other day.

But it's high on Google search right now.


Mostly for this one.

Been tattoo free for almost 69 years, so I think I'll pass this again this year.

Never heard of it.

Sounds like a marketing plan by the United Tattoo Artists of America.(not sure that exists)

Good luck on your tattoo.

I've never had a tattoo, broken a bone, or been arrested.

But I am headed to Vegas tomorrow. Maybe I can do a hat trick all in the same night!!!

Done all three (a few more than once :chuckle) the tattoo is the one to check off that list. There are tons of great shops in Vegas. If you get the itch lemme know I can send you some recommendations.

Just remember: tattoo first, drink after lol.

Bonus points if the ratio and broken bone(s) happen while arrested...

that is exactly what I came to say. It definitely isn't a "thing" anywhere I've lived in the states.
