Before picking up a disc, Matt Thornton was a wizard by trade. Widely considered King Arthur’s greatest advisor, Matt possesses a thorough knowledge of all things past, present, and future. Among his many accomplishments, Matt helped King Arthur recognize his birthright by pulling the sword from the stone, as well as advising him on his quest for the Holy Grail.

Matt first discovered the true magic of flying discs while imprisoned by the Lady of the Lake, the same woman who originally gave him Excalibur to give to Uther Pendragon. Powered by the mystical properties of root beer, Matt has been honing his skills in throwing round pieces of plastic and has become renowned for devouring vast amounts of ice cream in short periods of time.
