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.
