Brad Marchand confirms his Stanley Cup tattoo wasn’t spell-checked

When the Boston Bruins celebrated their 2011 Stanley Cup championship with a $156,000 bar tab and half-naked dancing at a Foxwoods casino club, it was our first glimpse at the fresh ink commemorating the Cup on players like rookie Brad Marchand(notes):

However, there was always something curious about Marchand's tattoo. Like the way "Stanley" nearly looked like "Starley"; and the way "champions" sure did resemble "champians."

Brad Marchand got a new tattoo. Im going to guess that Marchand was a little drunk when he got this...and the dude who did it may have been drunk too.

Its supposed to say “Stanley Cup Champions Boston Bruins” but it looks more like “Starley Cup Champians.” On a side not, who the frig gets a tattoo on the side of their belly?

BOSTON (CBS) – If you haven’t heard this yet, it’s great. When the Bruins won their first Stanley Cup in 39 years, a few of the players decided to get tattoos commemorating the event.
Of course, one of the players was Brad Marchand.
So the team wins, Brad heads to the locker room, meets the artist, gets the ink and continues to celebrate. Everything seemed fine and dandy…that is until somebody pointed out the misspelling of the word Champions.


Poor life choices. We’ve all made them but hopefully they aren’t inked onto your body as a permanent reminder that 1. you can’t spell (especially not when you’re wasted) and 2. the tattoo artist that inked you is too lazy to use spell-check or just has really bad and inconsistent cursive writing.

This is a picture of Boston Bruins forward Brad Marchand’s new tattoo. Throw out everything you know about cursive writing and pretend that the “n”s and the “m” in these words are represented accurately-please notice how the tattoo is still spelled incorrectly.
 Even funnier is that Marchand’s teammate Tyler Seguin appears to have gotten a matching tattoo. One can only hope, for hilarity’s sake, that it is exactly the same.
