World Champion Michael Smith receives welcome back to home town with congratulations on matrix board

As Michael Smith drove home late Wednesday afternoon after fulfilling all press obligations, the brand new world champion already felt the love in his hometown of St. Helens.

A matrix sign had changed to recognise Smith ''Congratulations Bully Boy, World Darts Champion,'' it read.

The world champion himself posted a photo of the matrix board on his Twitter. ''That's mint having my name up in my town like that."

He also went to his home rugby club St Helens and had a photo with both the World title and the Super League trophy and will likely receive more acclaim from his home town in the coming weeks.
