EveryBODY has a Story: Playin’ Pool

"About two years ago, I got really into pool. After I got the bug, I played all the time. I was about nineteen at the time, so even though I played constantly, I couldn’t join the bar league until I was twenty-one.

I spent all the time before I turned twenty-one practicing at an all ages billiards club. When I finally turned twenty-one, I joined a bar league right away. I met Adam Jelinski, (the guy who is tattooing this one here) in the league but he’s on a different team than me.

I first thought of this tat when it was Halloween. One of the women on the league was dressed exactly like the woman on my tat. I looked at different tattoo flash pin-ups, and added the clothes and the pool cue.

I wanted the tattoo to have a kind of 30’s gangster feel. It is going to go all around my arm. Today I’m getting a section done with a girl playing Video Poker. "
