Darts refers to a variety of related sports, in which darts are thrown at a circular target (dartboard) hung on a wall. Though various different boards and games have been used in the past, the term 'darts' usually now refers to a standardized game involving a specific board design and set of rules. As well as being a professional competitive activity, darts is a traditional pub game, commonly played in the United Kingdom (the first country to officially recognise darts as a sport), across the Commonwealth, the Netherlands, Ireland, the Scandinavian countries, the United States, Canada and elsewhere. DartboardsModern day bristle dartboards were first produced by Nodor in 1932, replacing the plasticine dartboards which had a strong chemical odour. When Nodor invented the new bristle dartboard it did not smell, so was named No-Odour (NODOR). Modern dartboards are made of sisal fibers; low quality boards are sometimes made of coiled paper. However, there are several types of sisal fibre that are used in dartboards today, originating from East Africa, Brazil and China. A regulation board is 47.08 cm (17¾") in diameter and is divided into 20 sections. Each section is separated with metal wire or a thin band of sheet metal. The best dartboards have the thinnest wire separating sections so that the darts have less chance of hitting these wires and bouncing out. The numbers indicating the various scoring sections of the board are normally made of wire, especially on tournament-quality boards, but may be printed directly on the board instead.

From Google News Search: "Darts" In the UK is darts a national joke or something? Q. When I watch darts on TV, the stands are packed and all I see are rows of tables filled with pitchers of beer. Does anyone actually go to a dart game to watch it or is it kinda like a joke and excuse to get smashed? I'm not criticizing the dart players I understand it takes a lot of focus and skill. I just find it funny that 80% of the people there and drunk out of the mind and couldn't tell you what sport they were watching.

Q. I live in Elyria and it is almost impossible to find a laid back bar with dart boards that are available for play on a weekend night.
