Coaster Tattoos

I was just wondering if anyone has done the ultimate in showing there love for roller coasters or parks in general. If you do what is it of? I've seen people with band logos, movie monsters, cartoon characters and everything else, why not a coaster.

I'm trying to get up the nerve and get inked. I'm also working on the design not to mention the cash needed.

Hello, My name is Dan and I'm a coasterholic.

Hmm...that might be the only kind of tattoo I could get that my husband wouldn't have a fit over. He hates tattoos, but I've wanted one for a while. Just haven't wanted a specific one enough to argue about it.

But gosh, how do you choose a coaster? If I got my favorite coaster and then got a new favorite, I'd need a new tattoo. I fear that eventually I'd look like a circus act...lol. Something generic might be better, eh? Hard decision either way.

I have always thoght the wavy M from the Millenium Force logo would be a pretty sweet tat.

Thats the one problem I'm having with my design. I don't want the coaster to be named. Like an invert if I'd get it green people will say it's Raptor. Maybe I'll just stick with shading and no color. I guess I shouldn't care what others think.

I saw the "M" done already. Sam Marks has it on his lower leg near his ankle. "M" for Millennium Force or "M" for Marks.

I don't but that's a damn good thought.

I've heavily contemplated getting the "M" tatooed on me somewhere but am weighing this cautiously. Don't wanna screw something that will be on me permanently. :)

I have two tats on my arms right now, one on each arm, but no coasters yet. Eventually, I am going to get something (not sure yet) in the top center of my back. Around that I want to have a collage of different things that tell something about myself. I was definitely thinking a coaster would fit nicely in the collage somewhere.......

This probably doesn't count, but when I tanned this winter I got a tan-tattoo of the outline of ST's lift. Yeah, I'm obsessed...but it's not permanent!

Wow... I can name several right off the top of my head, and wouldn't you know it, they're all Cedar Point fans. There's Magnum Dan, who has the CP logo, Raptor Jo who I think also has the logo, Jerry Flemming who has a virtual tapestry of things that include Magnum, Raptor, Montu among others.

Me... I'm not convinced I'll ever like anything enough forever in order to really like a tattoo. My wife has two though, so it's not like I object to them.

I have two dragons on my back and I am looking at a couple more...one coaster-related and one of the bull from the Bugs Bunny cartoon.

Guess it all depends on how you feel about it and if you have the money to do it.

Just call me MPG...

IF I were to get one, (highly unlikely as I'm not really into pain) it would be the ACE logo....hey, it's a WOODEN coaster....

If I liked pain, I would've re-ridden FOF in the OTSR days....;)

I remember Benjamin from GTTP had MF, Raptor and said he was getting the shivering Timbers layout on his back.

I've given some serious thought to the Kennywood logo on my arm, but my current tattoo has nothing to do with coasters. (Computers, yes, coasters, no)

Just get a Batman or Superman logo. That way, when you first get it, you can say its of a coaster. Down the line in your life if coasters become a thing of the past for you, you can just say its your favorite superhero. :)

"The Peoples Elbow" or "The Spinaroonie?. Cant decide which is the most electrifying move in sports entertainment!!! LOL

How could such a comment be made.

2 coaster tattoos!

On my forearm I have the golden archer, from the canon on the side of Disneyland Paris's Space Mountain, with De La Terre A La Lune in the same font as the ride

On my right shoulder i have the Prest D'Accomplir logo from Alton Towers' Hex.

I get my tattoos done locally by a guy called Louis Malloy, he also tattooed MelC, MelB, Posh & Becks! among others. He's agreed to work on the Montu logo for me... Plan to update my site with pics of them soon

Hey Jeff thanks for thinking of me but I do believe I fall in the same "tapesty" catagory Jerry does! I have the CP logo w/a heart attached to it on my right shoulder, the MF logo above that, the CP logo w/Snoopy on my left calf . My FAVORITE pride and joy one is the Raptor head/with the Raptor logo on my left shoulder. I would like some more work done to that one and I'm still considering one more but haven't come up with a design as of yet. I figure if nothing else they will be conversation pieces with my Grandkids and I one day

Like Jeff said, I have the CP logo on my right arm, and this past March I got a tribal sun on my left.

I still want the Magnum logo and MF M on my body somehwere too.

I don't think I could take the pain of getting it done, but the Ghostrider logo would be awesome for a tattoo...
