It means no worries
The Lion King is a childhood classic, and although most people think Simba is the main character, the hero, if you will, we think this whole story wouldn’t have been the same without his loyal companions, Timon and Pumbaa. Sure, we can learn a lot from Simba about courage and perseverance, but Timon and Pumbaa teach us a lesson just as important: how to relax and enjoy life.
In case you were wondering, this is a real place. Matata is a beach town in New Zealand, and we haven’t been there, but it sure sounds like a place worth visiting! Even before this vandal added the obviously-missing “Hakuna” from this sign, the residents of Matata must have known this is what their town’s name brings to mind, and they should be proud of it.
