This isn't around the neighborhood, but rather around the mall.... I saw two different Crossgates employees (working different stores) with Albany-related tattoos. One man had a tattoo on his arm that said 518 and another woman had a tattoo on her arm of the NYS outline with a star over Albany (of course). Now THAT's some hometown pride!
