hi,
i was thinking about getting some sort of saints tattoo,
i was wondering if anyone here has gotten one and what they think about it, whether they've regretted it, or loved it. also what they got tattooed like the crest, or a stick figure saint.

Gday Saintly555, I think I'll get the emblem that Sainter has as his avatar tattooed across my entire face!

:p Nah there's a thread that is on the main Saints board that you might find some decent suggestions:

I do like the stick figure within the emblem or "Fortius Quo Fidelius" in a nice font. I'd have this on a lower leg or upper outer or inner arm or chest.
 
Also, keep in mind, tattoo's are forever so consider it & where you get it carefully. Although I'm sure you'll be a Saint for life. You may not work in a corporate environment now but that may change later, you may be restricted by a certain job or uniform, whatever. I have another on my ankle which is meaningful but is covered for work.

This a bit of an old fashioned view, but just something to keep in mind.

I was planning on getting a Saints tattoo when we win the flag, but I've been put off by a mate who recently got a kangaroo tat that looks shocking. No one has the balls to tell him though so he's stuck looking like a goose for life I guess :thumbsdown:

But yeah when we win I reckon we have an advantage in that both our logo and motto would work great as a tattoo. I'd probs get fortius quo fidelius on my chest or shoulder or something.
 
"fortius quo fidelius" has always been my first choice. because even when you take a away the st kilda connection it still has a lot of meaning.
i'd prob be getting that first if/when i get one.
but a small stick figure saint somewhere hidden might also be alright.
 
hahahah! Yes you are buddy!

I always thought if I were to get a tattoo it would have to be something for life, and as I have no wife or kids the only thing I could be sure will be timeless would be a St Kilda (or Aberdeen fc) tattoo, as they are the only things I know I won't change.

Problem being the amount of people I know who have football tattoos which have just looked terrible or tacky has slightly put me off. If I were to get one I'd get "Fortius Quo Fidelius" somewhere, as it's the motto though doesn't look as overtly obvious that it's a football tattoo except to those who know it is (if that makes sense). I was discussing this with a girl I met at a pub yesterday, she said she was going to get "Fortius Quo Fidelius" tattoo'd if St Kilda won the flag. Seems to be a popular idea.
 
If we win the GF replay this week, I'm 95% sure I'll get some ink work done to commemorate the win. Something like the one Roo had on his arm for the membership campaign, but maybe with less tribal stuff?
