Court scratch fever

Just like in high school, in court, the seats toward the back of the room have higher instances of graffiti — technically scratchitti, which employs a sharp end to mark property rather than ink or paint.

Curiously, the scratchitti is mostly optimistic.

Included are the token shout-outs to the stomping grounds, such as "Bronx" and "New Jersey," but there are also assorted affirmations:

— "Think Dollars"
— "EA$Y"
— "Kings Love"
— "Mello"
