Are you a darts addict?
You might be a redneck if you think a family reunion is a good place to pick up girls. You might be Jewish if your greatest athletic achievement was in debate. If you own a $3,000 machine gun and a $5,000 rocket launcher, but …

Dart people love animals!

IT DOESN’T BOTHER ME A DAMN BIT!
Okay, so I just turned fifty years old…
I’m not keeping track of time. Really. I don’t care. I DON’T!
It doesn’t bother me at all. Not a bit.
It DOESN’T!
I feel the same as I did when I was younger, …

Takin’ out BIG FINISHES – at the grocery!
If you’re anything like me – married and male – you seldom go to the grocery, except to buy beer or, perhaps, on weekend game days to tag along with your wife and fill up on the sample products the little …

VIVA LAS VEGAS!
With planning for the January 19-20, 2024, Golden Era Dart Players Stacy Bromberg Senior Open well under way (much more to follow) my thoughts have already turned to yet another trip to Las Vegas.

Chicago – my kinda town!
When I blew into the Windy City, I headed straight for what is arguably one of the best darts bars in the States and got blown right back out… by a computer!

The night I threw against Philadelphia’s late, great Ray Fischer – 20 years ago!
A team came from jolly olde England, to fun city, on St Patrick’s Day
