Lower Manhattan was rockin last night in celebration of Norman "Sailor Jerry" Collins' 103rd Birthday. 169 Bar served up delicious libations while Three Kings Tattoo inked the iconic swallow on 103 party goers.
Fun fact: Sailors get swallow tattoos to symbolize distance traveled and to return them safely home. Check out the Courtney D'ne Brown Photography on Facebook for the whole album!
