Oh snap! Did someone say Halba week!?! I love posting stuff about that dude! Since I am Mathew Damon Hathaways oldest and best friend (yeah, he’s every ones best friend these days, but he was my best friend since 1989) I have some of the best-est photos of him. It’s been 21 years since when in 7th grade he asked me to skate with him instead of the whack dude I was with, and I’ve been Halbas #1 fan since then. I got my scanner out so we can all say: “Damn, Halba was fat right there!” or “See, he was a wigger even in 1989!” Enjoy…

This is “Matt Hathaway: Before There Was A Halba, The Early Years, Part 1: High School.” These photos are from between 1990 and 1995. I have so many more good ones coming, you just have to wait because I’m posting them in chronological order. “Before There Was A Halba, Part II: I Discovered Alcohol!” and “Before There Was A Halba, Part III: Horty!: The Chubby Years” will be out later this week. I love you buddy, forever and ever.
