Richmond TATTOO Convention Nov.21st-23rd
Last year was a ripoff. They had 9 categories IIRC, with 1st and 2nd for each. Gary Ruth/Roth (something like that) took home 8 trophies IIRC, and even got 1st AND 2nd in one category. I think he entered all but 2 categories, so he placed in every category he entered.
I'm sure some people will say "sour grapes", but I felt it was bad taste to give literally half the trophies in the contest to ONE guy. I will say his tats were sweet, but I don't see how his were magically better than everyone else's. For the record, I entered 3 categories and didn't win, nor did I expect to. I love my tattoo, but there was LOTS of great artwork there.
Anyway, hope the show is a little more fair this year.
