Sign in to disble this ad
So last night, me and he Mrs. went out and got a $13 dollar tattoo. A shop here was doing a promotion that if you get "13" tattooed, you get it for $13. Being of the punk/ rockabilly persuasion, "13" is a pretty typical tattoo, plus my wife's birthday is 1-13, so I figured what the hell.
Obligatory assy cell phone pic. 
contrary to my photo skills, the tattoo is oriented correctly

| | | | Cool tattoo but I hate to tell you this but you also just got a STG tattoo. The Mexican Mafia/Sureno's and a few other gangs all use the number 13 and have it tattooed in many ways on their bodies.
Obviously, I believe what you are saying as to why you got the tattoo but you may want to consider adding something to the tattoo to tell what it is significant of. If a police officer pulls you over and is not aware of why you have the tattoo, you may get a little extra attention if he or she thinks you are a Sureno.

I just got back from a National conference 2 weeks ago where we were given a ton of information on this stuff.
On a side note, what is the number "13" significant of in the rockabilly scene?

This isn't a fassa esqe thread, with the hidden purpose being taking pictures of my butt.
