    I've just been watching on the Sports Channel this dart championship in England someplace.There's thousands of people in this huge hall all drinking beer and yelling .

    Is this really popular? Does anyone go?

    It involves drinking beer and yelling.

    In other words, yes.

    I watched a darts competition on ESPN once. I honestly could not stop laughing.

    But is it seriously considered a sport?

    Pub sport. It's like snooker or pool but on a smaller level.

    My uncle once wanted my dad to record the whole 5 hour session in Newcastle just to see if he might be on TV. :astonished:
