Tattoo parlor inked Sox logo backward, woman says
SUN-TIMES MEDIA
Eugenia Bebis displays the backward Sox tattoo before her first treatment to have the tattoo removed.
A woman claiming a Northwest Side tattoo parlor
accidentally
inked a backward Chicago White Sox logo on her thigh filed a lawsuit
Thursday against the business and the artist.
Elmwood
Park resident Eugenia Bebis claims that on June 5
Mystic Tattoo Art & Body Piercing Corp. employee Micah St. John
improperly
tattooed her a backward Chicago White Sox logo on her thigh, according
to a
suit filed in Cook County Circuit Court.
Bebis has undergone extensive laser tattoo removal
procedures and will require more procedures and a larger tattoo to cover
up the
laser-faded backward tattoo, according to the suit.
The suit claims Bebis suffered pain from the laser
treatments and disfigurement from the backward tattoo and the
treatments.
The suit claims, among other things, Mystic Tattoo
failed to
notice the tattoo was being inked backward and didn't adequately train
and
supervise employees.
An employee at Mystic Tattoo, 3120 N. Cicero Ave.,
could not
provide further information.
An affidavit attached to the two-count states the
amount sought is less than $50,000 plus the
cost of the suit from Mystic Tattoo and St. John.
