Darts – And then we were THREE!




Happy Birthday to us, Happy Birthday to us, Happy Birthday Dear BAD BOYS... Happy Birthday to us!

This Tuesday evening was the nearest week of the year to the Bad Boys inaugural evening three years ago. To celebrate we kicked of the evening with a bottle or two of bubbly and some real ‘boy’ picnic food. Nothing sophisticated of course, just chomping material while we chucked arrows!

Attending were Pete, Dave, John, Casablanca Mike, Ian and the Doddmeister. After a bit of quaffing and chit chat we got straight down to the flipometers, which remarkably managed 6 reds on the first throw followed by 5 reds on the second, thankfully the third flip finished sorting out the teams which were Pete, Dave and Doddy ‘v’ John, Ian and Casablanca Mike.

PDD took the first game convincingly rarely putting a foot wrong, then JICM retaliated taking the second game by storm. Both teams having got a ‘stonker’ out of the way the games then settled in to too close for comfort mode, where any could have gone to either team. The evening continued with PDD taking odds and JICM taking evens right up to the last game where the odds got even giving PDD a 4 – 2 victory with the final score line standing at PDD 1356 / 24 JICM

Notable Events:

A new Dartboard! To celebrate our third birthday we hung a new board, it remains to be seen if folks like it as much as the last one.

Pete managed a Bull on Middle for Diddle.

John seemed very keen on treble twenties and treble eighteens. Far too many of us seemed keen on treble non scoring numbers!

There were some excellent darts thrown by everybody throughout the evening but no one stood out enough to be awarded MOTM.

Bull Wars: Despite the general good dart playing the bull count was unusually low with a total haul of 6 (5 scored in game), the honours went thus: Dave 2, Pete 1, Doddy 1, John 1, Ian 1. Making Dave Bullmeister for the evening.

Chart Changes:

No actual changes, but the results do cause some interesting % crunching!

Ian drops just over 1%, Peter up 0.5%, Doddy up 3.3%, Dave up 1.5%, CM down 1% and John down 1.5%

This puts Pete, Ian and CM all within 1% of each other, which should make for some very competitive games in the near future. Game On!
