[1]Proud Guy From The Rockford Loves Symbol and The Rockford of Illinois So Much That He Tattoed Himself a Reminder of His Love For The Rockford Hahahaha What a town!
Rockford, IL – Our staff was emailed a photo of a local person who loves The Rockford so much that he payed to have his love of The Rockford and Illinois tattooed on his leg. The red mark is “Symbol.” [2]
Symbol remains The Rockford’s unspoken hero, a public piece of “art” that sits alone next to a brown river pointing north. Symbol eternally represents The Rockford’s false phallic hope for transformation. It was forced (relocated) out of downtown in the 80s because city leaders believed it was ugly art with no purpose and that It took up too much space for commerce and progress. Hahahaha, commerce, progress! (Someone call TEDx or Transform Rockford to hold a talking summit now!) The city has shunned our hero for decades, but at least the community loves Symbol enough to tattoo It on its bodies. [3]
The man posted it on Instacrap for The Rockford to like and stuff or whatever. Stalk him out if you must to congratulate his tattoo photo on the internet!
We have nothing more to add to this story because it’s free, real and original.
