'''GoldenPalace.com''' is an online casino, hosted by the Kahnawake Mohawk First Nation near Montreal. It is well-known for its publicity stunts.
The casino has paid many boxers to wear [[Temporary tattoo|temporary tattoos]] on their backs promoting the site. GoldenPalace.com has been accused of far more disruptive stunts. The casino is widely believed to have sponsored serial streaker Mark Roberts in several of his escapades, including his "performances" at the 2003 UEFA Cup final and Super Bowl XXXVIII in 2004; at both events, he wore a temporary GoldenPalace.com tattoo. Individuals have also disrupted other sporting events, including the 2004 Summer Olympics and the 2006 Winter Olympics. Famed free climber Alain Robert also wore such a [[Tattoo|tattoo]] when he climbed the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 2003.


Not an [[Urban legend|urban legend]], nor a good idea.

[[Shawn Porter]] describes the difference of glow in the dark tattoos in [[BME QOD]]:
==External links==
<blockquote>
* [http://www.goldenpalace.com/ Golden Palace.com website]
Glow in the dark pigment does react under black light; it's true. But UV reactive pigment (to simplify: "black light" pigment) doesn't glow in the dark.
 
Glowing pigment absorbs and retains light—which is why it "glows" after the light source is removed. Black light pigment absorbs and reflects light as long as the UV light source is present, but returns to normal after it's removed.

== Long Term Health Issues ==
 
[[Tattoo ink|Pigments]] in the past have been nothing more than boiled down blacklight/glow in the dark poster paint, and are a possible carcinogen.
 
While the cancerous part has yet to be documented, proven side effects have included contact [[Dermatitis|dermatitis]], extreme cases of prolonged itching, as well as the feeling that "this stuff should NOT be in me."
 
[[Shawn Porter]] has both blacklight and glow in the dark tattoos, and while he reports nothing but trouble with his blacklight work (up to and including [[Tattoo Removal|laser removal]] to disperse the [[Pigment|pigment]]), he says that he hasn't had a day of trouble with the glow in the dark work.
