USNRET Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Old roommate from Navy days in Corpus (1980s) came thru town on business. We went out to have a brew and throw some darts since back in those days we played 7 days a week. I taught him how to play back then and as a couples team we won our share moving up from B-4 to B-3 to B-2 to B-1 and so on to A-4 to finally being qualified as A-1 players in a league of 600 players at the time. I went on to play Navy intramural darts in Europe in a past life. One of my favorites was playing with Candy Dulfer and being invited as a guest to one of her jam sessions. Tonight he won every game. Now I haven't thrown a dart since 1992 but screw you Ken Peake I WILL win tomorrow night....maybe, at least one game of cricket. Good time tonight Brah! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Sounds like a great time. I loved to throw darts when I was younger. Never in competition, just for fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JL Sargent Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 On the darts. I was throwing with a friend and loser was buying supper that night. We were throwing at a regulation board and at regulation distance and I had a moment of precision. I threw 3 darts into the double bull to end a 301 game. I had thrown 2 double bulls before a couple of times, but never a triple. That was a lot of fun. Mike, I bet you have thrown a bunch of those?

Bosco-d-gama Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 There are 2 closet doors that are mute testimony to how lousy I was at darts. Been blind in one eye since birth and couldn’t hit a barn door with anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete H Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 English darts? I was in a league for years in an earlier life. Board and 4 or 5 sets of darts I used are still with me but the days of going to bars to play in a league are not. Loved to play though.

Best game of mine was back to back 8 shot cricket games; straight triples and double bulls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
