Okay, so, I’ve been on this kick lately, right? Totally fascinated by athletes and their ink. Specifically, I was digging into Marcus Stroman’s tattoos the other day, and let me tell you, it’s wild.
First off, I spent a good chunk of time just trying to find decent pictures. You know how it is, scrolling through Instagram, had some nice ones on October 27th, and checking out articles, BarDown had a cool piece from back in January. It’s like a treasure hunt, piecing it all together. This guy’s got over 50 tattoos, I mean, that’s a whole lot of stories right there on his skin.
I started with the most obvious one. It is the quote, “Believe in yourself” on his chest. That’s front and center, you can’t miss it. It is easy to find. Then, I noticed, the whole chest area is covered in these motivational quotes, like little reminders to himself. He’s got snippets related to baseball on the right side, which makes sense, but then on the left, it looks like he’s got something for each family member. That’s a sweet touch, you know? A family guy through and through. That kind of sentimental stuff really gets to me.
- Started by googling “Marcus Stroman tattoos”.
- Found some good pics on *’ Instagram and some articles online, like the one from BarDown.
- Focused on the chest tattoos first, the “Believe in yourself” quote.
- Noticed a mix of baseball-related tattoos and family tributes on his chest.
Then, I stumbled upon this old article talking about how he covered up an old tattoo of the Toronto skyline. It is crazy. Apparently, it is a thing to have some change with his tattoos. Maybe he’s just evolving, who knows. People change, their tattoos change with them. It’s like a living canvas, you know?
And get this, he’s got a tattoo for winning the Gold Glove Award. I mean, how cool is that? It’s like a permanent trophy on his body. I wish I had the guts to do something like that. Imagine commemorating your biggest achievements with ink, it’s like wearing your heart on your sleeve, or in his case, all over his body.
My Own Tattoo Ideas
This whole deep dive got me thinking about my own tattoo ideas. I’ve always wanted something meaningful, not just a random design. Maybe something small to start, like a quote or a symbol that represents something important to me. I saw this DJ, Calvin Harris, once, and he had this “Enter With Boldness” tattoo on his arm. I liked that, it’s a good reminder to just go for it in life. It has been in my mind for a while.
Anyways, yeah, Marcus Stroman’s tattoos are a trip. It’s like reading a biography, but instead of words, it’s all in pictures and symbols. It makes you wonder about the stories behind each one, the memories, the feelings. Pretty cool stuff, man. Pretty cool.
