Swing by and get some sweet Valentine’s Day and Friday the Thirteenth-themed flash tattoos this upcoming February! Every attendee of the Midnight Offering event and the regular flash sale will receive a ticket to enter the Valentine’s Day ‘Broken Hearts Club’ contest on Saturday, February 14th, starting at 7pm. We will be announcing all the details at the Midnight Offering and Friday the 13th events and it promises to be an evening to remember! The party will be open to the public and you DO NOT have come to the Friday the 13th or Midnight Offering to attend the Broken Hearts Club Valentine’s Day Party!
In recent years, even though we accept appointments, we have had so many walk-ins that we’ve had to turn people away, usually by mid day, even then the wait can sometimes get as long as 5 hours. While we’ve taken pains to shorten wait times by increasing the number of tattooers working (this year we’re up to 10 artists at once) we’re introducing a new way to skip the line using a point system. It’s pretty simple if you want to try it: You can earn points performing tasks, once you get to 50 points, you get to be next in line (this excludes people with existing appointments, they take priority).
Here’s the tasks: 1. In order to play the game, you must leave us a 5-star review on Google, if you don’t feel that you can do this in good conscience, then please don’t. This is simply a reminder to let your friends know who your favorite tattoo shop is.
2. Wear a costume-10 to 40 points. We have to be able to tell it’s a costume. You can’t some as a biker if you’re a biker or a ballerina if you’re a ballerina; but if you’re a biker and you dress up as a ballerina, now THAT’s a costume! The better the costume, the more points you’ll earn. We are looking for originality, quality of execution, difficulty/depth of involvement, and Valentine’s Day-themed costumes are preferred (Cupid, Aphrodite, etc. Be creative!)
3. Stand outside with a sign for 10-15 minutes (depending on the weather)-10 points.
4. Get a piercing-20 points.
5. Bring us Jack Daniels-1 point per ounce, a fifth is 25 points. We drink.
6. Eat a bowl of hot chili and don’t drink anything for 5 minutes-Automatic next in line! Must sign a waiver first.
7. Bring a license plate from a different state-10 or 20 points. 10 points for a plate from a state we already have, 20 points from a new state or if the plate says something cool.
8. Bring a dog toy for a BIG DOG-10pts.
9. Beat the Bring Sally Up challenge-Next in Line! This is a push-up challenge to the beat of a song called Bring Sally Up. Not many people can do it, but you’re welcome to try.
