ShellfishThompson, now that you mention it, I must have seen you down at the local competitions. I've never competed or been to any events, but I remember seeing a guy everyone called "The Finger" playing there! This is so wild. I am certain I probably saw your wife there when I didn't go too. Describe her to me please?

Also, apologies for the behaviour of Honesty- in this thread. He's clearly the toughest guy in the whole of the Outside forum.

It's ok, Gerwyn_Price. I have seen far worse. As a former headmaster of a school for troubled youths, I have seen this kind of thing a million times before. 

As for my wife, let's just say she's wider than she is tall but I love her, brother. 

MrGrieves - well, what do you want?  Someone who just accepts when he loses, or someone who goes nuts?  Give me Joey Barton or Roy Keane any day of the week.  I want game officials living in fear of multi-millionaires, simply for doing a hard job to the best of their abilities.

Darts are cool. I love Darts. I wish I could see the dart leagues on TV and not have to stream online. But it's cool. I love playing it as well too! it sucks because I have not played in a while.

Well I'm actually kind of amazed how into darts you are. I mean I had a regulation one in my kitchen growing up but that for was for all the drunks to play when the party went from the bar to my house as a child. So honestly I dont have much care at all for it. Just kind of reminds me of shit memories and nothing good. But thats just my opinion and I mean I still haven't heard much about like I guess is there professional darts? I guess there must be some form as for it how it "exploded" recently I'd say when you are quite bored at home or can't interact with real sports then darts would be perfect. Don't mean for this to be offensive just figured I'd give you my honesty opinion on it.

Nothing offensive whatsoever there, MidpoinT. Everyone is free to give their opinion in the Outside forum, without any judgement from me. I am personally not that into darts either. 

I used to play in a league here in the states. I started just for the fun, then we did well and it became good competition for a while. I then went back to being for fun. Unfortunately, I had a falling out with friends and needless to say, I stopped playing. 

I like playing cricket sometimes, but a lot of bars have been stingy handing out house darts lately... Even pre-covid. Hopefully, I'll get to play again soon. 

Yes! Just what we needed, a hardcore discussion about darts!

Well, Pool is the superior bar game. How about that?

Pool is awesome! I mean, you'd never hear of someone paying $1000 for a set of darts, but, you regularly hear of people paying $1000 for a pool cue.
