The Back Story:Be in the Know:
Fun and relaxing, the game of dartboards is thought to have originated
in medieval Europe with soldiers throwing short arrows at the bottom of a
wine cask or at the bottom of trunks of trees. As the wood dried,
cracks would develop, creating "sections." Soon, regional standards and
local competitions emerged, with local pubs supplementing their bar tabs
by hosting the games.
Originally considered a game of chance by
English law, Darts is now regarded as a game of skill (or lack
thereof). Popular in many countries, darts continues to be played
primarily in pubs, often for pints of beer. It is also played
professionally, and most pro players use a nickname that is anything
from comical to intimidating. Examples include Smiley, The Legend, The
Matchstick, and McDanger.
As popular today as ever before,
dartboards continue to offer a fun and friendly way to enjoy
good-natured competition between family and friends.
