I got my tongue pierced in the 90's... actually on my 18th birthday. I got it down to a 4 gauge and was going for a 2 but then the ball broke and back then you couldn't just buy balls that big in a store... not even Tattoo parlors, they were special order. By time I got one it started to close up... then I broke another and another.... it ended up back at a 10g and I let it close up... by time I was 23 it was gone.
