Over at Philthy blog, they have a picture of what is indeed “seriously the best fucking Philly skyline tattoo I’ve ever seen.” It’s on the arm of Lana Thompson, and it is sweet. They’ve got more information on why the Comcast Center isn’t in there over at Philthy.

[...] We mentioned a couple of days ago, spurred by the above excellent neon skyline tattoo above (done by Chad Knight at Boulevard Tattoo in Collingsdale), that we were gonna try to round up the boldest and beautiful-est Philly-love tattoos. We found a lot of LOVE Parks, a lot of sports team logos and a lot of Liberty Bells, but we’ve sorted through them all and come up with the neatest ones, starting with a rather less abstract skyline than the one above: [...]
