Little Matt is Big

There was a loose knit group of kids in my neighborhood growing up. One of them was named "Matt" like I am, but since he was a little bit older and a little bit bigger he was known as "Big Matt" and I was therefore known as "Little Matt".

At my house there was a stretch of land behind the back fence. The fence was big and solid and it granted a certain degree of privacy. I spent a lot of time back there as a kid, and it felt like my territory. One day I took a can of spray paint and tagged that fence. In the biggest letters I could manage I wrote,

"LITTLE MATT IS BIG"
