Casey and I once saw a dude at Cafe Bohemia with an awesome jail-style tattoo of his fraternity letters on his arm. The awesome was only increased by the fact that homeslice was rocking a sleeveless tee and owning that shit. We decided that this called for a whole new subclass of bad tattoo: the Frattoo. You are free to use that whenever you want.

If you happen to be that guy, or have similar knowledge of things fraternal, like secret handshakes, and/or fond memories involving vomit, misogyny, or intricate subcultures developed around the principle of using “party” as a verb, then you could probably stop reading now. However, if you like really good tattoos done by swell dudes, then you should head down to the newly-opened Classic Tattoos in P-Park.

I mentioned in the comments to an earlier post that I liked the work that Keller was doing, and one of our fine readers informed me that he and another dude, Ryan, from their old shop were opening a place around here. The old place was in New Port Richey, so yeah, I’d like to personally thank both of them for making this move so that getting tattooed will be more convenient for me. I had no idea I meant that much to you.

The additional word is that the new place is set up to be both a tattoo shop and a gallery, which can only mean one thing: there’s gonna be an ink-slinging art rumble between Classic Tattoos and Casey’s beloved Blackout Creations any day now. Two local gallery/tattoo spaces = a high level of local Win.
