    Honor Before Victory tattoo?

    Serious question to diehard Clone fans: would any of you get an "Honor Before Victory" tattoo?

    If I was one who liked tattoos and had them (which I don't), maybe. I like the saying, like it's meaning.

    No, but I don't really feel the need to put anything on myself. Probably due to being pail and freckled.

    Working in Omaha/CB I see way too many douchy 'skers with N's tattoo'd on themselves. Looks hella lame.

    I would never get any tattoo... I suppose that this makes me a rebel, a different sort that plays to his own tune. An individual who doesn't follow the herd. ;)

    I always look at it as "Would I think of a Husker fan as a ****** if he had a similar Husker tattoo?" (Because I live in Omaha) The answer is always "Yes."

    I got a tatoo when I was 18. Now 40 years later...................I hate it and would wish it away if I could.

    1. Check first to see if your muffler is functioning adequately, and if your money would be better served by repairing a rusted out emissions system.

    2. Donate to the Gridiron Club, the Cyclone Club or a charity of your choice.

    3. Enjoy honor.

    Re: Honor Before Victory tattoo?

    Got my first and only tat 34 years ago. Don't even notice it anymore. So I guess the answer is no.

    Re: Honor Before Victory tattoo?

    If you want a tattoo, get it. It's your body and your money. Personally, I wouldn't get the "honor before victory" sign but that's just me. I think I would like it better in some kind of s-c-r-i-p-t, but I don't have a personal connection to it so I wouldn't get it for that reason.

    I have 5 tattoos, am 30 years old and am a respected professional in my office. All of my tattoos are under clothing 98% of the time (though they aren't small), so only a few people even know I have them.

    It's a simple game in which strategic beauty comes not from being surprised by some new clever trick, but from the sublime, routine brilliance of a master in his element.

    Re: Honor Before Victory tattoo?

    I got my first and only tattoo when I was 18 and 20-some years later I don't regret getting one, just the one I got. The thing about this idea is that it doesn't have to have anything to do with ISU. Not sure if it's what I'd get but I think if it's done right, I would like it.
