Anybody else watching? It’s in London and on DAZN. I’m totally addicted! Combine a World Cup worthy crowd of rowdy drunk people wearing costumes and doing chants, interesting characters, and really competitive dart action. It’s sorta like the Dodgeball movie but real.:LOL:

I’ve seen it a few times ? as you may guess from my forum name, Im a dart player. Been in various leagues for over 30 years.

Here’s a clip for those who are curious- the game is 501, object is to subtract your hits until you reach 0, last dart has to hit the double. In 30 years, Ive hit a “ton 80”- three triple 20s in one turn a total of times. There guys trade them back and forth like its nothing. 9 dart 501 is a perfect game

Yes! I just finished watching the final on DAZN, I had to work and missed it live. I enjoy darts but I suck, this is possibly the most addictive thing I’ve ever watched.

Are there other similarly competitive and entertaining leagues available to watch online? I’m seriously entertaining a trip to London next year to watch with my wife and brother in law, who turned us into this amazing show.:)

I've watched a few times. Where is this? Crazy that there are so many fans watching darts. Looks like fun!

I think the wild crowds is a European thing, here’s a video of the American Darting Organization final in Las Vegas


Try not to fall asleep ?

It makes me feel better about myself when one of those guys blows an easy shot :)

I saw one video where a player was wearing earmuff hearing protection because the crowd was annoying him
