Enter For FreeGot the horseshoe in the tattoo for him because he was one lucky bastard always doing shit walking away, but just barely scratches. Always had his boots for walking his work boots and his nice boots and his hat. No one messed with his hat. The rope was a reminder for how he ended his life, but also how he tied everyone togethe. At the end of his life so many people came together. All it takes is one person.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?You can’t give up, you get knocked down so you have to get back up. I want it to be beautiful yet haunting.
What would you do with the $25,000?Either put it towards other tattoos. Put some of it away for savings use some of it for a down payment on a house or land and start making my roots.
