 The "no drunks" rule is partly so the newly tattooed can't sue the tattoo artist based on a drunk defense and partly because alcohol thins the blood and makes it really hard to get a good tattoo.  
I think most people have thought out their tattoos long before they enter the shop.  They may be more motivated when intoxicated, but it isn't usually a brand new thought.
