aupops2 9 Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 I was wondering if there is any league rule about that tat being exposed in a game uniform. Wouldn't it be great for him going sleeveless, clearing a path for Cam into the endzone, with the tat exposed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know there is no rules as long as it isnt offensive, some OL in the NFL have alot more than what Ziemba has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerbelle 5,299 Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 I am not a fan of tats.....but I love the sentiment behind this one. Ziemba has so much love for Auburn. It's great that the AU is so visible, and that the creed is a part of the design. WDE Lee! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUGoo 2,699 Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Look how much skin that Tat covers! My arm might be big enough for the clock tower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As my wife said, he's all in with that one. Creed, Toomer's Oaks, NC Ring. Certainly requires a big canvas to get all that on. Just missing Haley Center. But then on second thought....

Rednilla 5,447 Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 What's with all the hateration on tattoos? I don't think anyone should get one just to get one, I don't like it when people cover their body with tattoos (most of the time), and I do think that people should think about how easy it will be to cover up like for a job or whatever, but if done right, I think tattoos can look pretty awesome. Of course, that having been said, I have a tattoo, so maybe that's the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, that having been said, I have a tattoo, so maybe that's the difference. Lots of kids race out to get tatoos, not realizing the long term consequences. In business, they are just not accepted, especially if they are visible. It is easy for you to get a tattoo that can taint the rest of your life and career. Many youths rush out and get them to be in vogue, only to regret their decision later in life. For instance, getting a kool tattoo when you are young does not translate to kool later in life. Getting one of a wife or girl friend could cost you big time if the relationship does not work out. Getting one like a Quite Riot, KISS, etc or one that expresses some derogatory societal statement, can cost you in the years to come. I know of several businesses that will not hire you if you have a visible tattoo. Best to think before you decide to "look kool" or fit in. If you are entertaining any business career for the future, better think before you allow the needle to paint your skin. Please note that I also think some tattoos are appropriate. Any hero that fought in a U.S. conflict or war that has a pact with his comrades in arms, is appropriate. However, even then it may violate business dress codes. Some exceptions should definitely be made, but many times business will not make these exceptions, since it opens them up to constant litigations.

Of course, that having been said, I have a tattoo, so maybe that's the difference. I agree with this^^^ I don't have a problem with a tattoo at all if it truly means something to someone. There are only a few reasons I would ever consider getting a tattoo, but I could definitely see myself very seriously considering getting something like this if (hopefully when) I graduate in a few years. I think I would have to get it somewhere other than my upper arm though. I don't have quiet as much room there as Ziemba does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some exceptions should definitely be made, but many times business will not make these exceptions, since it opens them up to constant litigations. I agree completely with having it in a place that is easily covered (mine is high on my left biceps), but that's not what I was getting at. I don't disagree with anything you said...but are you saying that people don't like tattoos, even on others, because of their permanence and the fear that said other person will regret it? I know all of the dangers of getting a tattoo. I've been lectured on the dangers present in the world all of my life; if my parents have a fault, it is that they loved me too much and tried to overprepare me. As a result, I've spent a fair portion of my life in fear of doing something wrong to hurt my future. Yes, there are consequences. And yes, tattoos are permanent. But...well, my favorite motto is that it's better to live for a single day than to spend an entire lifetime dying. It's so easy to get caught up in the societal constructs of corporate politics that we spend our time conforming rather than living, and that's just not the way things are supposed to be. You only get one shot at this thing, after all. Of course, as with all things, there has to be a balance, but it's been amazing to me the differing polarities with regard to tattoos since I started paying attention.

I love the Tattoo, I think it needs some color and it would be even better. but he picked a good place, it will be mostly covered wearing a short sleeve shirt. I have 2 one of them has been covered and is now 4 times bigger. But at the same time, they are both concealed when wearing normal work attire. As for Military; we have rules we have to abide by for skin art. It can't be visible in uniform. Including the legs in PT gear. although this rule has only come about for the Air Force in the last 10 years or so and there are some with sleeves that are grandfathered in. If a Tattoo covers more than 1/3rd of your leg in PT gear it has to be covered up some how. If you have a sleeve and are grandfathered in, you have to wear your sleeves down so that it is covered. For those that are negative about tattoos. Admire the art for what it is, Art. Leave it at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who gets a Quiot Riot Tat? :dunno:I would really regret getting that. But your point is taken,people should understand that there are consequences for decisions they make.

boknows84 0 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Just as a sidenote for those saying it's ugly, it needs color, etc. I'm pretty sure that it's not finished yet. Looks as though maybe this was just a pic of the results of a first session. When all is said and done, it should look much better (if you like tats).

Guest FEARLESSANDTRUE Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 If you read the article in the WER which the op linked you'll see that the artist says she is not finished yet and that it is just more of an outline now. LZ is planning on making several trips back to Auburn to have it completed. Now, I like LZ's tat, but check these out.
