About
Baby Yoda Tattoo refers to a photograph of Brock Mclaughlin's tattoo of Baby Yoda holding a White Claw Hard Seltzer on his forearm which was shared on Twitter in early December 2019. The tattoo was mocked on Twitter for its poor resemblance to the Mandalorian character, and Mclaughlin was criticized for his tattoo choice.
Origin
On December 4th, 2019, Twitter user @brockmclaughlin[1] tweeted several photos of his new tattoo obtained by Good Ol' Electric Tattoo[2] in Toronto with the caption, "Ain’t no laws when baby yoda drinking claws. To end 2019 I got a tattoo of Baby Yoda drinking White Claw. Enjoy babbbby!" (shown below). The tweet gained over 29,600 likes and 4,800 retweets in two days.
Spread
On December 4th, 2019, the White Claw Twitter[3] account replied by tweeting "Truly wonderful, this tattoo is" which received over 940 likes in two days (shown below, left). That same day, numerous Twitter users replied to Mclaughlin's tweet with a different feeling about the tattoo. Twitter user @HyperBooper[4] edited the photo to make Baby Yoda's eyes bigger and added the caption "Look how much better I made it with just one minute on my phone" (shown below, right). The tweet garnered over 150 likes in two days.
Later that same evening, Twitter user @boring_as_heck[5] tweeted a duplicate of Mclaughlin's tweet and accumulated over 8,600 likes and 800 retweets in two days. Many were convinced that the tattoo was actually @boring_as_heck's.
"Ain’t no laws when baby yoda drinking claws." Another common comment on Mclaughlin's tweet is that the tattoo looked like Yoda and not Baby Yoda. On December 5th, Twitter user @sebajun323_d[6], tweeted an edited image of Baby Yoda with the caption "Excuse me sir, that's just….Yoda…" (shown below, right).
That day, Brock Mclaughlin addressed @boring_as_heck's post by uploading a video of himself with the tattoo caption, "Heres @laurenonizzle capturing my Baby Yoda tattoo in video form for the sceptics" (shown below). The video recieved 20 likes in a day.
