Here’s another entry in the ribs tattoo category. Though this one is of the classic faces of drama and comedy. Which is for all intents and purposes the yin and yang of Shakespeare himself. And they are also the two most notable faces to be linked to the two week party that takes place each winter all over the world, that we call Mardi Gras. And I could be wrong but I have the gut feeling that when this person got their ribs tattoo they did so as a celebration of Mardi Gras.
There’s nothing wrong with getting a tattoo that celebrates a giant party that takes place every year. Especially if you live in any one of the many cities of the Southern United States where they celebrate Mardi Gras every year. And believe me, New Orleans is not the only place they do it. In fact, in the U.S. it started in Mobile, Alabama and is still a very big party there every year. I happen to like this ribs tattoo because it stands for fun and that’s a lot of what a tattoo should be. |
