"Justify Your Existance" tattooed across chest
It took two weeks before he noticed mistake
Panther fullback sees the funny side now
FOOTBALLER Jarrod Sammut has revealed a new tattoo but he probably should have checked the spelling first.

The fullback for Penrith Panthers had "Justify Your Existance" tattooed in big, bold letters all across his chest last year but it took two weeks before he realised the mistake.

"I had a little bit of a giggle about it but there's not much I can do now," he said.

"I picked out the style and the bloke wrote it down on the tracing pad. I had a quick look at it, I liked the type and shape and I was happy with it."

As well the new tat, Sammut has bulked up. "I've put on a good 8kg," he said.

"I played last year at 72kg to 74kg but I'm now at 82kg. It is the heaviest I have been."

And just who is going to tease him about a little vowel exchange ... I'm thinking some 110 pound English major that hasn't been out of the library in eight years  ;D

A little OT, but...  I remember being in Korea some years back and noticing that while a majority of men smoked, the only women I saw smoking in public were elderly, grandma types.  I asked my Korean agent why this would be the case.  His answer:  Who's is going to tell her no? ???

I think the same thing applies when a guy's muscles have muscles.  It's just smart not to pi$$ him off ;) ;D

FQ might agree with me on this one. ;D

Reminds me of a friend of mine that showed up with a brand new Harley Davidson tat that was misspelled.  Just a little ribbing was done over that.

I have a friend who has, what looks like a "street walker" tattoo, on his shoulder.  Stupid, in my opinion, to begin with, but she also has six fingers on one of her hands.   :D  Just one of the many reasons I'll never get a tattoo.
