LX Tatoos

KellyO97 · #1 10-25-2002, 08:24 AM

My boyfriend has a C & C on his shoulder with his chapter and number across the top, and his brother's number (who passed away a few years ago) across the bottom. A bunch of guys in his chapter also have the letters "Delta Pi" on their wrists (kind of like the movie The Skulls, ha ha ha).....I wanted to have my greek letters done, but my Nationals made it a rule that members could have nothing Fraternity-related in a tatoo....too late for me

.....so I have a shamrock!

thats pretty cool, i actually thought about doing the delta pi on my wrist too but i like c &c better. what sorority are you in b/c my girfriend is a phi mu and they have that rule too, just woundering if othe sororities prohibit have ltter tattoos.

I'm a Chi-O....and there are a bunch of women's fraternities that have rules against getting fraternity tatoos. First our Nationals just had rules about the letters and the crest, and a couple of summers ago they extended it to include any Fraternity-relaed items (owls, carnations, our colors, etc). So I'm was a good girl and didn't get one, but I wish I could have!

i say if you want it you get it.

i think that's dumb. what would keep you from saying you really liked owls and got it before you were a member?

KellyO97 · #7 10-26-2002, 08:10 AM

If you had them before they made the rule or if you had a "symbol" tatoo before they changed the rules (a few of my sisters already had owls) then that is okay. I was dissapointed, but I decided to respect the rules and not get one anyway...oh well!

If any LXA brothers are interested , I have drawn and inked a tribal band for xalepatakala. It looks unfuckingbeleivable. Im trying to get other brothers to get it done because it looks like a professional tribal but it also has that ":special" meaning to us brothers.

interested? email: b80879@yahoo.com

A brother in my chapter got the C&C with LCA written across. The hiccup? The tattoo was put on backward, and he didn't notice until it was all done. Now he has a backward C&C with the letters ACL written across it.

I'm thinking about getting a C&C with crossed swords behind the C&C piercing the skin. It's got a lot of good meaning if you think about it...

I have a simple C&C and zeta number on my ankle.

Originally, it was purple, green, and gold.

However, here is a warning...with age, colors fade!

I'll have to get mine retouched soon - I've had it almost 15 years (wow - has it been THAT long?)

One of our brothers has ZAX across his wrist, also if you check our website you can see some of our brothers tattoos also. There is a good one with the white rose and the inescution.
