The Dallas Cowboys is given the moniker “America’s team,” and possess some of the most diehard fans of any sports franchise. This love of the team for some runs deep as fans sport tattoos that show their loyalty to the team. Here is a look at some of the good, bad, and ugly tattoos with certain sections for specific areas of the body.
Dallas Cowboys Hand Tattoos
This is a good hand tattoo for Dallas fans as the helmet is prominent and legible given such a small area to work with. With the logo, helmet, and name clear on the hand it is a good tattoo because of how clear it conveys the fandom while looking sleek on the hand.
It can be argued this is like the previous tattoo, but given no clear indication of the team, and how the lines may bleed together, this is a bad one. To a person with no football knowledge, this could pass as someone who just represents Texas and is proud to be from the lone-star state.
Sorry man, this tattoo is ugly. It does not look lined up properly, and the way it is displayed does not help the situation. Tattoos are supposed to be unique, and maybe symmetry does not make a great tattoo, but when spelling something, one would think it needs to be even, and less mundane.
Dallas Cowboys Sleeve tattoos
The blue pops on this tattoo well and makes this a good sleeve piece. The Super Bowl trophies are done elegantly, as well as the rings. Also, the word “Cowboys,” is symmetrical, and as mentioned that is a huge deal when getting words on your body for life.
This has too much going on with all the buildings and the effect he has going on around the whole piece. There’s no distinction between all that is around the city and the trophy, and it makes the piece bad and indistinguishable.
The flag with a Dallas logo is a cute play on the “America’s team,’ but not a fan. The dullness and monochrome flag contrasted with the bright Dallas star weighs the piece down and overall is ugly. With a concept that is unique, the product is average or below when the potential could have resulted in an awesome tattoo with loads of color.
Dallas Cowboys Forearm tattoo
The concept of bleeding blue, the muscles, and the star in the arm make for a good forearm tattoo. The ripping of the skin effect is a nice touch that enhances the overall piece. What is eye-catching about this is the blue muscles in this and the detail involved.
The bright star in this piece made it bad. The color is too bright and with no indication of team or Dallas, it looks like a random star. The hand grabbing the helmet is good, but not immediately recognizable. The biggest thing however is the blue star that is too bright to be the Dallas Cowboys.
The back story of this is Randy Gregory dedicated this piece to the Dallas Cowboys after it selected him in the 2015 NFL Draft. The piece is just ugly, no way to say it other than that. No clue as to what is obstructing the star, but it seems unnecessary. The star does not hint at the franchise, just a random star.
Other Dallas Cowboy Tattoos
An example that bears resemblance to the bad hand tattoo mentioned earlier. But where that piece failed to distinguish the Cowboys fandom, this piece did it quite well. Taking the state of Texas, making it blue, and making the star blue clearly shows Dallas Cowboys fan, not just random Texas pride.
The writing on the piece is not clear at all. While it can be deduced that it says Cowboys, it does not look like it is based on the left side of the writing. Personal preference, but head tattoos just do not seem like a wise choice. It can be argued there are nice headpieces, but this lack of clear writing makes this piece bad.
Dallas Cowboys Neck Tattoo
Just a bland tattoo overall. For an area as sensitive as the neck, and something that is going to be on a noticeable part of the body, it lacks a flair and uniqueness. Also, the fact that the tattoo bulges out because of his Adam’s apple, just adds to the ugliness of the piece.
Dallas Cowboys Leg Tattoo
Finally, our last Dallas Cowboys tattoo is this sick 80’s colored leg tattoo. This is actually our favorite tattoo in the series and applaud the artist’s incredible coloring!
